Default Acapulco Bay.

Hello to all:
I decided to use the combination of color of the HST (Hubble Space Telescope) and to make a processing but clean the possible.
The first cut of " Bay of Acapulco" , and soon all the North America Nebula (NGC7000), both have different processings slightly.
Thanks to happen to see the photographies.

Bay of Acapulco:



NGC7000:



Many greetings
Cesar

Hi guys:
It was a small joke, I was very happy with the result of the processing.

You did that? Not Hubble? What is Hubble for then?

Those are amazing pictures.

Hi 777 geek:
In this photography I have had much luck, the night was dry, and much signal could be caught, with each one of the filters. Then, when being so balanced the information, the colors were not as much problem. The Hubble Palette was used, like combination of color. The photo of the Sulfide filter, was used like red color, the photo of the filter Hydogen alpha, like green color, and finally, the photo of the Oxygen filter, like blue color.
They was of 50 minutes by each filter, with subs of 10 minutes.
Many greetings
Cesar

Hello again, 777 geek:
50 minutes of each filters with subs of 10 minutes, are 5 frames of 10 minutes, that soon are to stacker to form each image by each filter.
Here we must to combine, 3 final images of 50 minutes, that create a final image of 2 1/2 hours, formed by 15 frames of 10 minutes each.
Many greetings
Cesar

Thanks. What do you use for processing? I assume each shot is recorded in monochromatic form and then the intensity of each pixel is transferred to its assigned colour in the corresponding pixel on the final.

Do you have high resolution versions of those pictures? It would look great as a wall paper.

Hello 777geek:
This photo is to the original size that it produces the camera, 4Mp.
I have changed the format of tiff to jpge, because format tiff weighs 56 Mb.
