BTW had Stuart Tapp at our place doing some electrical, said he knew a guy at Streaky. Figured it was you. Mentioned your last name too. Asked me if I knew you.http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/....es/happy19.gif
Hi ya Paul, thanks for the comments mate! Took a little time to find what was working with this image.... tried lots of different stuff but went pretty much back to the basics.
Yeah, I remember Stuart.... being a 'retired hurt' ex carpenter/ builder, it's good to keep in contact with other tradies... usually through our bands drummer who's still gyprocking.. always some one tagging along on a band practice night.http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/....es/happy04.gif
Say good 'ay to him for me.
It's a small world in our hobby that's for sure!

Love to hear at a high level the steps you took to overlay Ha and get star colors without halos around rgb stars you typicaly get when blending Ha.
Hi Chris, cheers for that, can have its moments utilising the full contrast and detail of Ha data and mixing to BB rgb's.
I'll PM you and bit of a run down..

Nicely done
Thanks Pete.... pretty much what I needed to do with this... such nice Ha, would have been a shame to not try and preserve it with the colour.

Hey Gaz, nice to hear from you.... it is an interesting area for sure.. some lovely stuff going on and the Boks just give an unusual distraction.

Thanks all for your great comments.
Always appreciated that's for sure!

All the best for now
Rich
