I find it really hard to get consistent colour results even processing the same data from scratch. What do others experience in getting consistent colour balance? Reminds me of the old NTSC colour format for video ( Never The Same Colour Twice)

Here is the Carina Nebula. Used Quattro 800, ASI 183 MM H S and O filters.

What software are you using?
Once you've stretched and combined your images to RGB (SHO), in PixInsight, download a script called NarrowbandNormalisation and it can help you get the right colour balance for narrowband images. Then play with curves. Using masks definitely helps with curves.

Great image
