NGC 1499 (California Nebula Gradient) - best way to do it?
Hello. I imaged the Calif. Nebula and I was surprised to see that GraXpert and Gradient Correction both removed part of the nebula. Then I tried DBE with samples on either side of it (not sampling the nebula itself) and that seemed to do better. Attached are screenshots of each. For each screenshot the altered nebula photo is on the left and the model is on the right.
I tried to attach the raw master light but at 100MB it seems like it was too big to upload. Please let me know what the best gradient removal options are for something like this. Thank you in advance for your help!
