SH2-129
« on: 2010 December 23 22:09:04 »
Hi all

In the spirit of the new gallery rules I post this image for comment/criticism/suggestions

I'm not sure about the star treatment I've applied. I wanted to reduce the star sizes slightly to enhance the nebula so I created a star mask and then applied 0.85 MT erosion.

Also I'm still having issues with HDRWavelets not doing to the image what they do to the Preview  :-[

I look forward to feedback

Thanks in advance

Nigel

Hi Nigel,
20 minutes!, excellent guiding.
Very nice picture but I cannot see it big enough to observe details.
I have the same issue with HDRWavelets and use a Preview of the complete image, it is slow but works. 
merry christmas!


Hola Nigel,
20 minutos! excelente guiado.
Muy bonita foto pero no puedo verla suficientemente grande para ver los detalles.
Me pasa los mismo con el HDRWaveletes y uso un Preview de toda la foto, es mas lerdo pero funciona.
Felices fiestas!
