The green channel is synthetic, so I guess that would skew colour balance.
I must say, I didnt analyse the image much, other than noticing the noise due to small exposure times , I just found it asthetically striking generally and quite like it.
Its not my image, so Ill just say I like it on face value. |
Fair enough and it is an image showing the inner ring so that "is" pretty cool regardless of its asthetics

Guess what? - the same features are there.
I personally think its a brilliant shot and may push the boundaries but hey we are amateurs and guess what the professionals are now stacking their shots from a whole series to get the sharpest image.
Sound familiar?
Just my opinion, no malice intended

Yes I agree, seeing inner ring that clearly is pretty cool but as for the other details ...? an image is an image and it doesn't have to be perfect but I just find this image has lost a lot of what it could have had as a result of the hard processing but hey it isn't a crime just making some observations. The lots of short exposures technique is one to develope I recon and has some real poential on brighter deepsky objects.
