Description

Raw bicolor image of M16 in Ha/Oiii filters with linear stretch and no cropping.  The Ha data were mapped to RGB values corresponding to perceptual response of Ha and a faux HB signal.  The Oiii data were scaled by a factor of 1.5 and mapped to RGB values corresponding to perceptual response of Oiii.  Then the image was linearly stretched in photoshop by setting black and white points - and nothing else.  It is a linear representation of the data captured, with a single linear scaling of the Oiii channel.

EdgeHD11 on CGX-L with 5m exposures on ASI1600.  Oag guided with MetaGuide.
