M8 Lagoon in Bi-Colour NB

[alistairsam]

sorry about the duplicate post

I took this whilst I was waiting for "astro" dark to see what it looked like in my fov, and ended up processing it, pretty happy with how it turned out especially since this has just 1 x 20min Ha and 1 x 20min O3.

combined in startools using Ha:Ha:O3:O3 and then selective colour in PS. more of a free hand there.
my collimation was off so I had to "repair" some of the stars in startools so stars are far from good, but I do like the details I got in 40mins.

comments welcome.
