Can I ask if you stacked this as HaRGB before PP, or RGB then Ha Luminance in processing?

Took me a while to look at it on/off to see the details pop out. Looks like some heavy noise reduction has affected the non-selective areas and killed the object a bit.
I didn't do any noise reduction. It is quite a small object and seeing was not the best. Not sure what PP means (post processing?). I did not use Ha as luminance very much as it kills color. I used a tad I think but hardly any.
Ha is blended in after RGB combine and processing as layers. This is my usual routine. That way I have maximum control rather than doing a HaRGB combine and then processing. Both ways probably work and I know some do it that way by adding Ha and Lum together and Red and Ha together. I prefer to add Ha as layers as I have total control over the effect of the Ha.

I don't think it has a lot of detail really. The Ha by itself was probably the most interesting subexposure with the most amount of detail.

Thanks Louie.

Its not the most impressive astroimage but I thought it was worth posting as it is unusual.
