Description

This is my first attempt at monochrome narrowband imaging. While processing the photo, I noted that monochrome images had significantly less chrominance noise than one-shot color images, which drastically simplifies and expedites the noise reduction process. Additionally, the smaller amount of chrominance noise facilitates more accurate color enhancement.
