Carina Nebula (NGC 3372)

I really enjoyed processing this Telescope Live Pro Dataset. There are some beautiful details in the nebulosity.

I rendered it in slightly modified SHO palette. I mapped RGB to SII, Ha and OIII (starless images) respectively, then did a slight tweak to the hue curve (emphasising the blues and reds), followed by SCNR to lessen some of the green. A separately processed Ha image with the stars present served as the luminance layer. This was a straight export from PixInsight without any further processing needed.
