Yeah, I tried a bit more saturation, but results were not good IMHO. Someone with more skills than I may be able to do it!
I am trying to do images without going crazy on collecting data. A lot of newcomers to our hobby are put off by thinking that you need dozens of hours of data and then days of processing to make decent images.
I am trying to keep acquisition and processing within reasonable time frames. Just under 5 hours collected over 2 nights but spent way too much time processing. My other recent images of the South Pillars in Eta Car was only 2.5 hours total data and about an hour processing (not counting the Batch Preprocessing time in Pixinsight that ran while I was in bed!)
These images are definitely not APODS, but represent a reasonable level of result vs time committed.
