NGC3324 - April Contest

Processing notes :
After several integration trials, I decided to use Ha only for the Luminance.
The signal was so good that I deliberatley wanted NOT to oversharpen the nebula area, especially the center where you can end with huge "black" areas.
I tried to keep a smooth rendering while maintaining the variation in the center.
I treid to maintain sharpness "around the head" to emphasize the center of the image.

On the other hand, I wanted to have sharp stars and I had a "manual" deconvolution of my own dedicated to the stars shape with a a dedicated stretch.

SHO composition for nebula colours; I tried to keep the composision hue variation in the result, with orange / yellow / green / cyan / blue / magenta
HOO composition + SPCC for the stars colours
Clear skies :-)
