Description

Image 3/4 Interesting to compare this RGB image with the two previous NB images. Stars are much larger in BB, as you would expect, and take a more "starring role" in the image. However, background/dark nebulosity is not clear and contrast is poor - despite the aggressive processing used. The colour dynamic seems greater than the NB images as well.
