Lagoon nebula

Hi folks,

I had quite a bit of trouble getting detail out of the centre of this image due to the high signal in all narrowband wavelengths. Tried the usual tricks with various stretch methods and masked HDRMT but can't seem to be happy with the result. I know there is data there because it briefly appears with a very soft stretch. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I made hydrogen orangey gold, sulphur a rusty red and oxygen teal. Stars taken in RGB.
Not quite happy with the odd palate but I'm happy with the data quality.


As always, constructive criticism greatly encouraged and appreciated!
