NGC 1763 realistic
This was processed in Pixinsight and photoshop. Instead of using the SHO palette in SetiAstro's Perfect Palette Picker I used the realistic 2 option on linear data. While assigning Ha to blue provides and interesting image, Ha in NGC 1763 is the strongest signal. Approx. 20 subs of the 59 were rejected in stacking which was surprising.
