Thanks Ray, Martin and Alex
I'm starting to push the colour a bit lately.
It may not be technically be right but when you replace the eyepiece with a camera then all the rules go out the door and its more of an artistic interpretation rather than true colours otherwise is just fuzzy black and white version of what our eyes see.
That's why I love your colour pallet you use Alex. Technically not "correct" but really artistically pleasing and what is correct anyway?
I've seen NASA do it with Hubble data and replace the red channel with a blend of Oxygen and Ha and Sulphur to the blue channel but highlights certain dust formations.
Lately Have been playing around with gigabytes of free data from the US.
Its through a 17 inch Planewave and a RASA.
The owner of the remote observatories is freely giving away high end data for people to play with and compare processing. Some of the colour work is amazing but when you have 7 filters to use it gets quite interesting and its all up to personal interpretation.
Its probally all this lockdown and living with an artist has rubbed off a bit.
Anyway thanks for looking.
Cheers
Andy
