Peter, how do you keep such great star colour? Do you layer seperately for that?

[peter shah]

no separate star layers, i just use the standard curve method, it retains star colour nicely. Its very important not to clip the white point, when keeping star colour.

Beautiful Peter,

Good job in getting the RGB before the moon popped up. Lovely pink hue to it.

So THAT'S where all the sky went to the other night!

Love the colours on this Peter, we get so used to seeing narrowband images of this, that the more natural look is lost sometimes, but here it is in all its glory.

Is there a full sized version uploaded somewhere? I'd love to overlay these colours over some close up data that I have somewhere

Thanks

Tim
