This was a reprocess of some old data I took back in April. Trying out a few new techniques as I learn PixInsight. Also practicing LAB in photoshop. The result is colourful and a reasonable little pic for such a low amount of data. Ha 40 minutes and 5 minutes each of RGB.

Thanks for looking

All the best

Hi Paul,
that is such a stunning pic.
The LAB mode has turned it into a work of art.
Well done.

cheers

Thanks Allan
The LAB mode is a powerful tool in getting colour into your picture. Like anything the decision about what is enough is in the eye of the beholder! The temptation to tweak is definitely there

I have found that it makes a great differn e to my star colours which is what I was aiming for.
