Love the tight Trap area.

Thanks for the feedback Greg!

Sometimes the colour calibration tool in Pixinsight leaves me scratching my head and having second thoughts about its results. I didn't mind what it came up with this time, especially considering the very few stars it had to work off for the white reference point. Other times I have run it, then clicked undo, proceeded without using it and adjusted the balance myself.

I ran the HDR tool using the 2 minute subs for the core, I'm pleased with the result.

I went back in and adjusted the balance with the curves tool. I reckon it has more of a "traditional" balance now. What do you think? I like them both
