I don't usually post images because I am pretty rubbish at processing but I feel this one is ok.
Hubble palette with RGB stars.
Maybe a little over processed?
Thanks for looking and please give me some feedback

Just a touch cyan, maybe tone down the green/cyan channel a touch

That’s a great eagle. The detail in the pillars and surrounds is really nice. Perhaps it might be a bit too much green in the mix imo

Thank you for the feedback Nik and David.
I have toned down the cyan and the green channel al little and it does look better.
Thank you

Very nicely done, Jeremy.

The second image is much better with the toned down green/cyan mix. The 'Pillars of Creation' seem to stand out from the background a lot more.

Cheers,
V
