M78
Messier 78 (M78, also known as NGC 2068) is a beautiful reflection nebula in the constellation Orion. This nebula is sometimes nicknamed ‘Casper the Friendly Ghost Nebula’.
My workflow for processing this nebula included: SPCC, BlurXT, ColourSaturation, HDRMultiscaleTransform, ImageBlend, NoiseXT, DarkStructureEnhance (a little bit), etc.
