Quite nice.  I noticed the red channel is pushed to the right.   If you were to push that channel to the left with color balance would you get a greener image?   I have been struggling with dark nebulas even those that have extended exposures, which are mandatory in my opinion, with the color of the actual dark nebula.  I finally found that if you push the red to the right a bit you get rid of some of the green.    Beautiful shot.   Now with respect to Insight, I think you have a home observatory also, No?  How did you find Insight.

Thanks

I used SCNR in Pixinsight to remove green.  I just noticed that Insight Observatory had a telescope in Chile, and one thing lead to another.  I am pleased with their work.

I started using a brown filter in photoshop that looks similar.  I will look up SCNR.   I am into dark nebulas and molecular clouds.  The image is fabulous.  I do think that the image of the comet turned out spectacular.  I did not comment on that yet.

Beautiful. The data must have been very clean!

Great image, Jim.  I do like these dusty nebula images - the seem to give a great 3D effect.  The data  quality from the Insight Observatory looks very impressive.
