M33 lrgb

[ptc]

taken using an AP155EDF f/7, with PL39KM (OSC) used for RGB

I didn't have a lot of exposure time in the RGB so its colors are a bit subdued compared to how you often see this one.

For the luminance I made two different versions: one using a PL16803 that gives a wide field of view and another using an ML8300 for a smaller FOV

ML8300/PL39000C

the mono Luminance from the ML8300 is pretty nice too and is linked in the page above. It was 90 x 5 minutes

Nice shot....I like the subdued colours, looks more natural and not so gaudy/pimped up.

I am not a fan of the excessive processing I see on way too many images. I prefer very minimal processing and taking excessive data instead when possible. Either way I avoid the 'bling'.

Sounds like you prefer the minimal method as well.
