CEDERBLAD 116 (CED-116)

Bright nebula in Centaurus.

3 days of post processing effort with separately working on the stars and the nebula. Went through many color variations until I settled on this one. Lots of enhancements in shadows and highlights, clearing up noise and improving details.

It is the longest time I've spend on any nebula so far. I hope you like it as much as I do :)

Also attached Starless version, as well as Black and White.
