Well for starters, you've contradicted yourself in the two statements I quoted regarding what the maker of an image might perceive as a natural look. You've also had a go the people's processing skills, and labelled their images as inferior.

Marc, I disagree - I can't see the same effect in the image you posted. I have seen the rippled effect that I referred to in multiple Ha images that I have processed using wavelet tools in PI. I've never seen that effect in images published by professional observatories. I looked at the link Ivo posted about the carina region, and I can't see it in those images either, especially at anything like the image scale of Bert's fine data.
My attitude with every step of processing has always been to make a change and then ask myself, "Does this look real or ovorprocessed?" Usually I go too far and bring it back. When I see that effect from wavelet tools - I always say "too far!"
Enough from me, back to the original topic.
