The framing is great, and fitting both those nebulous complexes in one FOV is awesome.
You have said all comments are welcome so I'd like to comment (not critisise) that I find this and some your previous images just a bit lacking in intensity and vibrancy, they look just a little flat? It is as if the layering and shadow highlght tool you are using PS is washing them out just a tad..?
Still, excellent images of course

Thanks for the critique (“comments”) Mike.
Very good - am pleased you’ve picked up on my imaging style. I don’t over saturate or “bake” my work for too long. For RGB work, I prefer the “natural” look compared to the vibrant/vivid colours, like those found in a box of smarties. This is one of the points which defines my images from others. I use the PS saturation function predominately on the star processing routine, but seldom for other tasks. I feel there are better ways of bring out colours in nebulosity. The PS Saturation function is actually performing a linear stretch on your data, so your bright areas are only going to get brighter depending how hard you push for colour – this may not be the desired result your after. In comparison, the PS Shadow/Highlights performs a non-linear stretch allowing much greater control. You can also set colour correction in the process – big advantage. Of course, this is a matter of opinion and preference. Everyone has their own methods and style. Appreciate your input.
