Advanced Techniques for Composing for Light & Darkness In Astrophotography

The balance of light and dark is a crucial component of any beautiful image; no less astrophotogaphy. Let's explore using this balance to draw the eye to the Trifid Nebula and the nearby Webb's Cross open star cluster, applying advanced techniques such as reflection compositing, selective curves, erase-mask noise suppression and luminosity-filtered Gaussian blur to see if we can create a work of art that is also true to form. *** *** *** We are Telescope Canada's first affiliate.
