M8 in SHO

Although the seeing was pretty average I took advantage of the clear skies over Sydney for the last two nights. This Hubble palette Lagoon is the result.

I'd be keen to hear any opinions, especially on the colours. I like working with SHO images as there's no 'right' way to do it and they're never going to look 'real' or 'natural' so there's a lot of scope to come up with a pleasing look that shows off the details. I'm pretty happy with the way this one looks, at least on my monitor!

SII – 11x20min
Ha – 7x20min
OIII – 6x20min
