Description

This is my first attempt at creating a false color version of these nebulae. Being in a Bortle 8 area, I almost always shoot in narrowband, but using a OSC camera. I've always ran into issues with trying extract the HA and OIII data, and then trying to edit it. It never had a natural look to me. I tried a new approach to editing and I was finally able to achieve the look I was going for.
