The most fun and the most frustrating astro-image I've made so far! This is my fourth attempt at narrowband imaging. My first 3 subjects were: Jellyfish, N. America, and Crescent. This one was a LOT harder! Many false starts and missteps both in acquisition and processing. I threw out HOURS of data that wasn’t up to par, and this is my 4th full revision of the processing. I am still not fully happy with it, but each revision had positives and negatives, and I think this is the best balance of those so far. The most fun thing about the making of this image was the data (that I kept) was all captured on my road trip to see the eclipse, so all the data was from fairly dark to very dark sites. It is **very** faint. I used a tone mapping process originally described by J-P Metsavainio, which is why the stars are completely white. Basically all the color data is in the tone maps (which are starless). I then recombined that with the a synthetic Lum made out of Ha and Oiii data combined to bring back in the detail and stars.
Description: Slight changes to colors that I think I like better.
Description: More color tweaks... better? I think I've realized I am never going to get it looking exactly how I want without RGB data- I might try to gather some later this summer.
