M8 sho

Having seen the amazing M8's on here I'm not sure what this adds to the collection but haven't been happy with the SHO versions I've tried previously. In this one (using current Ha and 2109 OIII and SII) I tried to keep the colour reasonably simple to avoid overcomplicating it all. Not sure I've succeeded and still very much prefer the natural RGB!

Wowza, that is super sharp in the core area.

Might have pushed the Decon a little hard perhaps. The SII line actually had some subtle detail that got a bit overrun here so might need to revisit that when I get some fresh data.

Ben,
I like this SHO rendition
A great result with excellent contrast and detail
I agree Decon may have been a tad heavy
Cheers
Martin

One more SHO for the road

So here are a couple of reprocesses with RGB stars. One keeps it pretty much untouched in regard to the SHO colour combinations (given a linear fit to OIII was made early on). Much softer on everything too to make is wispy and fine. RGB stars. The other has the magenta taken out of it to keep it much like the previous version but now softer on the details.
