Comments
Dear Jeff, very nice result. I like the orange-bluish color scheme. When I processed this dataset myself, I found it difficult to obtain this, even with tonemapping. Can you give me a clue to the key steps to achieve this? I usually use PixInsight
Hello Rudy. Sorry for the late reply. I did not see your question until now. I essentially used curves in PixInsight to get the yellow/orange color by adjusting the hue. I learned how to adjust the hue with curves in one of Adam Block’s tutorials.
