Description

IC 410 is a beautiful emission nebula being sculpted by the stellar winds and radiation by the embedded open star cluster NGC 1893.

Captured three evenings Oct 20, 21, 25 . I created a Starless image using Starnett++ , cleaned up the star residual a bit by making a star mask of the stars left in the Starless image. I then applied Morphological Transformation to reduce the residual stars. Then I worked on the Nebula using the normal tools,... Curves, Local Histogram Equalization, and a touch of ACDNR to remove some of the leftover noise in the image. Then added this finished Starless image to the original with pixel math.

Then did some masked curves adjustments to highlight the details a bit.
