Head of the Pelican (before and after)

[steviemac500]

I've been trying to find different things to image so I had a go at what is technically HH555 (visible as a small jet) which I first saw on Sara's website (inspiration). This is 30 x 1200s n each of Ha, S2 and O3 - 30hrs in total. Minimal noise reduction and main processing in PI. This is actually version 12 or so as I've been trying different ways to achieve the Hubble palette with some very varied results. I left some green in as I think it adds to the colour transitions. Comments welcomed as always. Hope you like it!

Actually, now that I've seen this on the forum I decided to take out the green and brighten the image up a little.
