Rosette blending LRGB and HST

[prostcj]

I combined narrowband data captured last year at our club's observatory with color data captured remotely this year.  I have attempted to keep a relatively natural hue while still getting the detail of the narrowband.  I think it is time for a KAI-11002 for my FSQ-106ED.  (as if looking at Olly's images weren't enough to sway me...)

Very nice

A very nice combination, giving you the best of both - I like it.

When you say HST, did you map the NB to the colour channels as in HST or did you remap them? Ha is red and 0111 is on the green-blue borderline so that's where I'd add the NB data myself. This does look pretty natural with, perhaps, a stronger than usual blue central part.

Big chips are soooo nice in the FSQ!! Do it...

OOh that is very nice sir. Love the moody colour contrast and nice detail.

Very nice nebula colour, good star colour too

I actually used a HST image i processed and then used pixel math to blend it with a processed LRGB image.  The stars are pretty muted in the NB version so the real color of the stars came out pretty easily.  The trick for me is bringing out the red of HA and S2 (which is gold in the NB version) while keeping the picture form getting too violet in color.

A beautiful rosette nebula lovely starfield too!
