The Heart Nebula. My third time imaging. Previous shots:
I was able to get best detail so far of this awesome looking nebula. I used 55 light images at 300s exposure. I was also more aggressive during the post processing. Well, as aggressively comfortable I was wiling to be in Photoshop.
In beginning I was definitely conservative of certain actions in Photoshop. It took awhile for me to realize it is ok to go aggressive at certain areas. It’s the only way to really bring about certain areas of your image.
Really dig this pic. Pretty happy with the results on this one!
