IC 4628 HaRGB

[rat156]

Hi All,

I managed to add some RGB data to the Ha data I acquired for the narrowband version of this. I had to invent a new way to make a master luminance as the stars were very much smaller in the NB data, so ended up with dark halos around them when the colour data was added. Seems to have worked OK, but I may still change a few of the blending options in PS.

I have processed the image to accentuate the different red colours in the image, hope you like.

Share and Enjoy.

Cheers
Stuart

That's a stunner Stuart! Good balance with reflection nebulosity blended over the Ha. Sharp and smooth are terms that often contradict each other but in this case, its a good fit. Excellent! I will be coming back for another visual hit tomorrow no doubt.

It's looking wonderful, I am really jealous!

Beautiful image Stuart! Something to aspire too! Jase said it in a nutshell, smooth and sharp!
