Rosette nebula_HOO- my version

[MariusD69]

Hello!

A short capture taken on 16th (Tuesday night), total exposure 4h20m. Although I was intended to capture this target on multiple nights (one night per filter, at least), with my experience from this winter ( a month between two good nights), I decided to capture Ha and OIII in the same night. Good decision- the bad weather returns.
So: I had 2h30m OIII (6nm Astronimik), 1h50m Ha (7nm Baader). TS apo 80mm (@380mm FL), ASI 1600mm Pro.
It wasn't easy to make the core blue-cyan. I made a lot of combination with PM (on linear and non-linear phase) with hue adjustment, but I didn't succeed to have that blue. Finally, I did it with PS (Canistra's tutorials). I post two color versions.
Clear skies!

Brilliant Marius.

I really like the blue in the first, the second has a touch more depth.

I love those deep blue hues in the first version.

All in all, though, beautiful capture.

Congratulations on the APOD award.

Hi Marius. A superb Rosette image here. I really enjoy the nice contrast and colors in your capture. Thanks for sharing this work with us Marius, and congratulations on winning the TSS APOD Award today.

Nice images Marius. There seems to be no limit to the number of possible color combinations with NB imaging, even with just Ha and O3.

My favorite is the first version, but, all are nice.

Hi Marius, you spoil us with 3 versions.personally I like the Classic version, but any of them is worthy of the APOD. Well done.
