LRGB VERSION

 

This image was produced using the wide field greyscale image above as the Luminance layer combined with an LRGB image taken a year previously of the nebula region only using the 1004x-JG, which was used as the RGB layer. The colour balance was altered and the saturation increased from the original image to achieve a better OIII 'Teal Blue' colour. The rescaling , alignment and merging was done in Photoshop 6. The image that was used for the RGB can be seen here
