Lol - very punchy image Rick - there are some dark circles around the blue stars though?
Well composed and great detail in the O3 regions

Ta, Andy. I noticed the dark circles and hadn't decided whether to try to fix them yet. Perhaps I'll even tone down the colour just a tad as well

Thanks, beren. I've been there too It's a lot easier to concentrate on a few objects once you have access to any automated system.

Thanks, Paul. Look forward to yours...

A few tweaks... more magenta for Mikey, improved the stars a little for Andy (not perfect, but better), coloured the electric blue areas with a little more subtlety, etc. It's still very saturated

I'll add a slider next time, Mike, and you can dial in exactly as much as you want

Now wouldn't that be good ..what a great idea , every time you post an image you give the viewer the ability to slide the colours to what ever they like, brilliant ...heck why not just supply the processed LRGBHaOIIISII sets and say "here! make it so you like it buddy!"

I'm going to rush out and patent the idea of attaching ICC Colour profiles to people
