Resampled the whole hot tamale of Eta Carinae Neb in PixInsight, ran a whole bunch of Rick-arithms, threw it into PS CS6, got a nuclear pink flamboyant Dame Edna, then toned it back somewhat.
I dunno...pink isn't me...I like red (heck, surrounded by redheads...)
Oh it's a hard choice Lewis.
I like both you're red and your pink versions mate. EDIT: and now a third "Max Factor" version while I was typing.
You've certainly got some nice data there and it's a huge improvement over the horsey data.
That one got fouled up somehow.
Maybe settle for something in between the red and pink, I don't know.... maybe try again.
If it turnes out nice then you could say you RB'd it.
Which reminds me, I must redo my images, it's been years since I've taken any Deep Sky objects.
Just have to decide whether to use the ol' TOA130 or try out the TOA150.
Did you read the deleted post I made? Or did Dave tell ya?
Yeah, considering it's a touch over 1hr data in severe LP, it's not half bad if I say so myself. Speaks a lot about fast f-ratios (but the Baby Q at f/5.3 is not THAT fast - wait till I get the reducer from Claude...then it'll burn!)
Horsey...well, it is pretty dim to start with, and again it's only 1 hr with an 85mm scope! Give it SOME credit OK, you don't have to. Thing I like about the Horse is the framing - I LOVE long portrait style framing for objects like these rather than landscape - accentuates the object itself. Of course, a diffuse neb looks better in landscape.
Yes, IMAGE YOU LAZY SOD! I thought I was bad, always finding excuses and continual excuses of "testing the gear". Nike it! (Just do it!)

Funny - with my Microsoft "Night Light" on, the revision looks pinker than your undies! Turn it off and it's not THAT pink.
