Description

NGC 7822 is an emission nebula with the embedded star cluster Berkeley 59. The nebula is about 3000 light years away and has one of the hottest stars in this radius to the sun. On the right is the open star cluster NGC 7762.

I was able to expose for two nights in spring 2023 and have now processed the data with Pixinsight:

1) GraxpertAI
2) BXT correction only
3) SPCC
4) NXT with very small amount
5) SXT for the separation of nebulae and stars
6) Increase colour saturation
7) Arcsinstretch and GHS for the nebula and simple stretch for the stars, thereby reducing the size of the stars
8) Curves
9) very light BXT to starless image
10) NXT
11) Merge nebula and stars
12) Fine tuning in Capture One
