Description

This is half of my winter project of the Orion Nebula and Running Man nebula. This is the first panel and is processed with LRGB and Ha, OIII and SII data. I had several problems in processing. First was the star color when stretched for the RGB data. The ArcsinhStretch seems to always generate color artifacts with the stars. I also had a lot of issues blending the NB data into the RGB. I was not successful with the NBRGBCombination script so I used a blend of the RGB and a false color image from the NB filters using the blend script. I still need to figure out how to fix the star color. The fringe halos are not a consistent color. The microlensing artifacts around the bright stars is inherent with the ASI1600MM-Pro sensor.
