Having a bit of fun learning to use Astro Pixel Processor.
Some NB data on the Running Chicken. Still learning how to process colours etc.
Comments welcome.

Thanks Colin, your old 1600 is performing well with my scope.


Boom boom thanks M and T.


Thanks Leon.


Thanks Rick, I pushed the colours a bit to show the swelling gas to the left of the image. There is a bit of grandienet to the bottom right I need to sort out, but happy as my first stacked NB image using APP.
cheers

Overall a pleasing image but the stars in the neb area seem too large or sharpened.

Perhaps the method you blended the RGB stars onto the narrowband was too large around each star. In Photoshop its best done with a lighten blend and select the stars with a slight overselection - not too much.

Thanks Rick and Mike, no reference to the band, but NB does lend itself to some psychedelic colours.



Thanks Greg, I only used NB data, no RGB data, my next project is to combine this NB data with my old DSLR/RGB data and see what I can get.
