Description

IC 4628 - Prawn Nebula

An emission nebula in Scorpius, around 6,000 light-years from Earth.

I tried two different Hubble palette methods of processing this nebula and got very different results. With this image I used the standard method to map the colors but with a blend of the other colors (e.g; For the Ha as green I blended 33% of red and 10% of blue), this resulted in almost no violet halos around the stars and less of the green color.
