I know it's another repro ...but it is different from the original and was reprocessed from early stages not just colour mixed. I did purposly process it quite light and bright as the area has almost infinite detail in the background and too much darkening or noise works risks affecting the visibilty of these bits, so as a consequence there is a liiiittle bit of noise left but hopefully not too objectionable
Hey Mike, just wondering about the Hubble like pallet and how thats achieved. As I'm very new to astro image processing I'm trying to get a grasp on the terminology used and what it actually means physically.
I've been a serious photographer for a long time and process all my images from raw using Capture One Pro software, a very good, no even better an excellent raw converter so are you just controlling your RGB to give the pallet appearence and then luminance you want in your final stacked image or is there some other dark art here with these colours
Thanks for any info.
Hi Mike, this time have to say I am not totally impressed, sorry mate. Target is fantastic, color is ok (well, as you know I am not at all a fan of NB palettes) but I find the image quite noisy and not natural, a bit too overprocessed for the amount of data available. Don't take me wrong, IT IS a good image of the area, simply not up to those top-notch standards you get me used to

Hi Ken
My approach is often similar to this, it's quite a simple approach too
