HSO Process using one shot color camera with Optolong L-Extreme Filter. Channel separation in Astropixel Processor using Mono HAO3 channel as the sulphur channel. Processed and recombined in Astropixel Processor and processed in Photoshop. The mono channel was sysnthesised as a sulphur channel and using Adam Block's new technique allowed for the lovely gold hues in the image. (HOO and S infused) in Pixinsight

Nik,
Super clean and detailed image together with some clever processing techniques with OSC data.
Colour is superb
My only observation is that stars appear slightly eggy. Maybe a result of pushing 10 min subs ?

Cheers

Super image Nik. That detail is so rich and 3D I feel like I could reach out and touch it. Really lovely shot mate well done!!
