M42 Orion LRGB Atik 383l+

[Rudeviewer]

I finally got some color data to add to my LUM of orion.  This image consists of 2 nights of imaging

8x600s Each RGB color with Calib files

6x1200s LUM with calib files

10x600s LUM

10x30s LUM layered with the 600 and 1200s for a final LUM and then Added to the RGB file. 

First time for lrgb with Orion so I think it came out ok.  Colors aren't quite there yet, maybe when I add some HA to the image it will look a bit better.

very good, it paid off the time invested in it.

I have brought the black level up just a bit.

Very nice and loads of detail. Just a suggestion and hard to tell on a different monitor but maybe just reduce the green channel a little. Also is there an artefact on the right hand side?

[Rudeviewer]

Yea there is an artificat on the right hand side.  I think a refelction from a street light nearby.  I am going to redo the LUM on this one with flats, as it didn't have them maybe I can remove it with that.  Ill try running SCNR on PI and see what it does.  Thanks for the suggestions!

I am at work and just grabbed the png on the server here and removed the green form the image.

Looks much much better on my monitor. Lovely.

Had another play with morphological transformation in pixinsight made the stars smaller and also added a layer mask to add saturation where i wanted it.
