Description

RCW6 - not too often a target for astrophotographers, is an interesting example for visualizing the difference between the conventional LRGB image and the more advanced SHO (Hubble) image. Both images were taken with the same equipment and processed with the same tools. Just the stars are for both images taken from the LRGB rendition to get more natural stars than usually obtained with the SHO imaging mode.

Please do move the mouse over the image get from LRGB to SHO!
