I had a look again at sdome M13 data captured a few months back.

 

I processed into the attached image. I left the background a bit darker to emphasise the colour- it also hides a few artefacts.

 

Let me know what you think!

 

I wish you all clear skies

Thank you for your kind words. I don't actually like the image that much on reflection- the background is too dark but If I lift the levels it shows all the horrid light pollution. I need to see what I can do with the background TBH.

Is the color enhanced? IMO the color is too extreme. It's a fabulous image and I'm curious what it would look like with very little color enhancement (if any was done).

Yes- lots of colour saturation- I wanted to see colour- I will try a toned down version to see what that looks like.

That is a really deep and detailed shot. A bit heavy on the color saturation and sharpening for my taste but a great shot nonetheless
