And just for sh*ts n giggles, an RGB version of the same data.

RGB stars to come

Great image Scotty. Interesting that I think I like this version better than the NB. Not sure why apart from maybe the colours seem to compliment each other better????

I agree with you Rex. The "RGB" NB version is my favourite too.

Cheers mate! :thumbsup:

Me three! Looks great Scotty! Good job on the star removal, that's pretty tedious.

Thanks Lee.

Have to admit. Wasn't difficult at all. Used Straton! :D

Nicely done Scott, and stars have been removed nicely without damaging surrounding nebulosity and thus without leaving "scars"...

Maybe one thing I could try is moving the black point - I think the background is too dark :question:

:thumbsup:Thanks good sir.
I purposely went for a dark background. Atmospheric and artistic and all that guff...

Maybe the RGB stars I am collecting over the next three nights will balance it out a tad...

Again, thanks very much

That's a nice starless eagle there with nice colour. Did you use Straton? I find starless images impossibly hard without using Straton.

Cheers

I like it, dark brooding & moody with a sinister colour palatte, nice one!

Thanks Andy. :thumbsup: The exact mood I was aiming for.

Have redone the whole lot with full suite of calibration frames. And added some RGB stars from last night. Processing as we speak

Yeah, pretty good, I like the colour palette, t'is a bit like that which I got on my recent Bi-Colour NB swan image :)

Different colour and to me has a 3D look.

Cheers,
