This one is headed to my friends for a wedding gift. I composited this image as SHO, then did a color transform so that the H-alpha signal is pink, O-III is teal, and S-II is yellow. The result of the transform is very desaturated, but some GHS saturation stretching fixes it. I will definitely be working with this palette more.
