Finally got around to processing it. I completely re-shot the Sadr region. Honestly, it seems better, but at the same time, I have mixed feelings. Either way, I'm waiting for feedback from other photographers.

Overall it turned out well, the only thing is that unfortunately the half-moon is a bit poor. Also, that blue patch between the half-moon and Sadr is a bit concerning. I wouldn't say it strongly resembles an oxygen region, though I think it could be attributed to short subs. Other than that, it came out nicely.

Well, the crescent moon is really struggling, and for the colors, I oriented myself by the channels that I separated in Siril.

Well, we'll just blame it on the short subs ;)
