Going for the Trifecta NGC6188 in HOO

[Bart]

I'm giving this object a thrashing, I've never successfully completed anything on this, so going for the trifecta, LRGB, HOO and SHO. Ive got a few more SII to get then I'll have the SHO to do.


Here is my attempt at HaOIIIOIII with RGB stars. Struggled with the colour and brightness. Doing it bi-colour threw up its own challenges. No artificial sharpening, some noise reduction and some stretching before combining with the LRGB image to get the stars.


Feedback welcome. :thumbsup:

That's a wonderful 6188. Great stars, sharp details, good colour.

Nice and tight.

Nice. It looks very natural. I very much prefer this kind of narrowband processing to SHO etc.

I really like this one, Bart... very nice indeed!

Thanks Disco, nice of you to have a look. :)





Thanks Greg, nice feedback.




I went with the "less is more' on this one. Thank you.





Cheers. I'm a big lover of both, especially if done right. ;)





Thanks Lee, nice of you to drop in for a look.:D
