M8 The Lagoon Nebula is a gorgious nebula in the constellation Sagittarius.
This photograph is more of a close-up of the centre of this nebula, revealing some beautiful details.
I used the following software:
Astro Pixel Processor for stacking; PixInsight for processing (Gradient Correction, RC Astro Tools, SPCC, GHS, HDRMultiscaleTransform); and I did the final touches in Affinity V3, for which I also used a number of macros by James Ritson, such as Live Denoise (Chroma) and Bandpass Sharpening (Fine).
