Monkey Head Nebula


Recommended Posts

Hi all, here's my effort on the monkey head nebula NGC2174. This is just over six hours of five min subs stacked in APP , processed in pixinsight and finished off in photoshop. I used the advanced sharpening script in pixinsight for the first time which I think does make a slight difference especially in the core. It's probably a bit less aggressive than the unsharp mask tool I'd previously used in my opinion. 

Cheers Paul

Love it! Great colours and super detail.

Not tried the sharpening script - I'll have to give it a go on some old data.

Thanks Keith. I use the advanced sharpening script using it's default settings on the starless image just before I re introduce the stars if that helps. Takes around 30 seconds for it to finish 👍

Thanks Paul - I'll give that a crack.
