Description

As it happens to me from time to time, I enjoyed myself with this iconic galaxy M31. 

For this treatment, I used 3 software, IRIS, Siril, and Photoshop. 
Iris allows me to process RGB images in Fit format: bottom level of the sky, dynamic enhancement and contrast adjustment. 
Siril used me mainly to combine RGB channels , color balancing treatments and background level. 
I then used Photoshop for all the adjustments needed to get a presentable image.
