Description

This is one of the other incredibly rich and vivid targets for my widefield set up. After seeing the skull version of this nebula when rotated, I could not unsee it.

I had originally planned on making a Ha - SOHb composition for this target but the SiiHb dualband OSC images alone had amazing color. Hb looks awesome. 

Processing steps:
  1. Stack/Blink in ASTAP
  2. GraXpert crop and gradient removal
  3. Bring into Affinity Photo
    1. Pseudo arcsinh100, denoise, leveling curve, arcsinh, stretch curve
    2. Export to desktop as TIFF for StarNet2

  4. StarNet 2 extract stars and the rest
  5. Boost nebula with channel mixer red+10%, blue +20%, vibrance, saturation.
  6. Very light clarity filter
  7. Bring back stars
    1. Denoise, stretch, saturate/vibrance

  8. Done!
