About this image

Image expressed as a false Hubble palette through an Optolong L-eXtreme duo band filter (Halpha and OIII). It involves creating a synthetic green channel from the two captured channels, but I remove the green hue because it feels unnatural to me.

Software used: Pixinsight, Photoshop CS6 and Topaz DeNoise AI
