Bubble Nebula Wide HA OIII

[Rudeviewer]

My version of the wide bubble nebula in HA and OIII.  HA to the green channel, OIII to the Blue, and I used pixelmath to combine the two images at 50% each to create a lum file.  

Taken over the course of two nights.  Just had a chance to add the OIII data last night to my previous HA data.  I think the OIII adds a noise level that i am not happy with yet but this is my start.  Will continue to add data when i can.  I think when changing the green to a gold color that also introduced some noise as well that i didn't account for.  Also noticing I think my pixel scale with this setup doesn't work as well for this wide of a target i can tell i can't get as sharp of image.  Processed and combined in pixinsight and then tweaked in Photoshop CS2.

8x1200s HA, 11x1200s OIII, darks and bias calib files only.

A reprocess of this image after sitting with it for over a year.  I think its a bit better but soon here I will have this scope back on my mount and hopefully can get some better data with the new mount.  Its smoggy due to fires all over the country so i needed something to reprocess and try a few newer techniques while i wait to image more.

 

EDIT:  Clicking on the image shows it better

Looks great. I like the colours in this 2nd version more than in the first.
