Hubble palette Lagoon Nebula

I was fortunate to be under VERY dark skies last night at a friends property near Wombeyan (good seeing too), however I was unfortunate in that the clouds only let me get an hour of imaging done.
4x5min Ha
4x5min OIII
1x10min SII
Processing in DSS, Startools, PS (and I aligned and combined the channels using Nuke... it just seemed like the best tool for the job that I had at hand)

Not super happy with my processing yet, need to fix the fat red stars, and the surplus of red stars due to pushing the lone SII sub a bit too far, but I'm sure this will become easier when I'm able to get more/better data especially through the SII filter.
