Description

My first proper nebula shot!

I used WBPP, with local normalisation on the R and B channels (it would freak out on the G channel for some reason ). Removed background gradients, cropped, ran photometric colour calibration, adaptive stretched, upped the saturation, ran TGVDenoise and voila.
