Hi
I thought I would have another look at this and see just how much dust I could get to show given the limited RGB time and light pollution, I took the original data from the previous image posted here and made a shadows and highlights adjustment followed by adjusting the black point and two very minor 'S' shaped curves adjustments. There is more noise in the image and the core is a bit bright but my main intention was to see how much of the dust in the region I could get to show. This has made me want to go out and get more data to make a smoother image which I will now do at the next opportunity and then reprocess the whole image from scratch.
The earlier RGB and LRGB versions can be seen on the home page and the Nebulae 2 page in the image gallery of my website
