Title: IC1848 (Soul Nebula) SHO with RGB stars.

Description: The 1st rev was created almost entirely with Pixinsight using Forax equations in PixelMath to create a starless RGB file from Sii, Ha, & Oiii (StarXTerminator for star removal). For the second revision, I used Photoshop and loaded the SHO mono files into the RGB channels and edited the color with simple level tweaks on each channel. The RGB subs were combined & color-corrected with PCC and the Stars output from StarXTerminator layered back on top of The SHO nebula.

I'm sure this is old stuff for the salty veterans on this site, but it was a new discovery for me and I finally seem to have a method for getting the color palette I'm looking for with narrowband filters. Now I just need to figure out how to de-ring my stars (or get better data), but that's another story.
