Cave nebula

[emyliano2000]

Call it HOO or HaRGB, I don't really care, the Cave nebula, shot with a TS65, ASI294MC, 158x300sec Ha and 100x300sec Tri-band.

I didn't extract the Ha and Oiii from the Tri-band shots and I used it like I would use a normal RGB and added the Ha on the red channel and a little bit as luminance.

Happy with how it looks.  A lot of people might not like it but I added some artificial star spikes (I just love star spikes and I think that if you do it carefully, they look very real )

I’m with you and I miss my reflector for that reason only, but I didn’t know you could add diff spikes that’s awesome! Mind telling me how you do it?

I have a RC now that's giving me some pretty spikes 😁

There is a plugin for photoshop that I use. It's called StarSpikes Pro 4 from Pro Digital software. It's actually on sale now.
