Description

Image of the Eagle Nebula taken with the C9 Hyperstar. In my initial processing I tried to stretch in a way that shows as much of the overall nebulosity in the FOV. M16_C9xHyFNBZ_RGB_final.jpg
I generally liked the result, but it looks a b it busy and a bit artificial.

So I attempted a softer stretch that puts more emphasis on the central/pillars region.  The final image (for now) is a slight crop of this version.
