Description

This image shows two large emission nebula. Gum 14 and 15.  I found this to be a challenging object to image.  It is fainter than I first realized and this area is loaded with stars.  The amount of stars visible clouded the nebula.  So I first reduced the stars, then removed them from the image to process the nebula.  I found by first reducing them and then using StarNet, it produced better detail in the nebula.  I added Ha to bring our more detail.  I also increased the midtowns to show the dust in the region around the nebula.  Overall this imaging help to improve my post processing skills
