One Shot Colour Hubble Pallete Image Processing in PIXINSIGHT (Free Data Included)
In this video, I go through one of my workflows on processing a number of images of the Rosette Nebula taken with a one shot colour camera, and create a Hubble-esq false colour image.
The good news is, you can follow along in Pixinsight and use the exact same data. (including the calibration frames) - Yes I'm giving you my data.
