This image was more a demand of processing skills than imaging skill. This is a combined 2 hour Ha image with a RGB (R)50min (G/B)40 minutes each. The times for the RGB are approximate; I mixed and matched so many different images I forgot the total times involved. To get Alnitak to show its correct size and its companion star, I reduced the glow from around it to almost nothing. To make the picture look semi-natural, I then went back to the original RGB version and cut a large circle from around Alnitak and pasted it in the HaRGB document. I then worked with curves, opacity, and fill to get a light glow that would look natural but also would allow the two stars to shine through. The Image was taken with a TOA-130, Sbig 10xme, and reducer. Individual images were combined in MaxIm DL and all processing was done in Photoshop CS. Charles Hover
