Description

M45 is my second HyperStar image, still working on collimating but the weather is so cold my hands start freezing a soon as I remove my gloves.

I am really struggling with processing, keep getting lost in all the different processes. This is a stacking of 240 10s RGB, processed in PI and a little LR. Does anyone have a good simple workflow that would get me an ok image and that I could build on when I get the hang of the simple method?
