Description

I was processing this target lamenting that I couldn't get much color, specifically blue, out of my images. I saw one of Elmiko's images (https://www.astrobin.com/18s6ro/?q=elmiko) and the colors were great! I stretched this image based on his recommendation of starting with Arcsinh Stretch and finishing with Histrogram Transformation in Pixinsight to preserve color. As you can see, if worked great! (Thanks Mike!).
