Description

M57 imaged mid summer of 2021. Data was collected with LRGB and enhanced with Ha and OIII. The Ha was added to red channel and the OIII was added to the blue and green channels.

The data set consists of 

L = 36 x 600s
R = 30 x 600s
G = 30 x 600s
B = 36 x 600s
Ha = 17 x 1800s
OIII = 20 x 1800s

The data was processed with Pixinsight and some final tweaks with photoshop. I used the normalizeScaleGradient tool again in pixinsight with good results. I am going to make this part of my regular flow.
