Nice image. I like the crip pinpoint but not over sharpenned star field. The nebula stands out nicely also. :thumbsup:

Welcome .. I see it's your first post :welcome:

Hi Les and welcome to IIS.

That's a great looking image to open your account with. I haven't seen that one before.

Cheers

Looks good Les from what I can gather from the smallish image posted.
The trouble with bandwidth allocated on any group.

You have a truck load of data here and I'd give it more in the way
of enhancing this data.
IE... in PS, if you want to retain the small stars, mask them but give the
neb areas more curves.... a bit more colour saturation and you'll find the
nebulas will really pop out from the Ha data you have.

Any how, always fun to see what you can get out of the time you invest in
collecting.

Welcome aboard.

Rich

Thanks for the kind words and advice, I am still learning the ropes in processing not sure about masks to keep the stars small but will look into it

Regards Les
