btw, can you try a version without the use of the LPR for comparison? Might suspect the LPR is introducing unneccessary multi-order gradients, but better to make sure. Hope you could do this if you have time and weather permits. Interesting results nevertheless!

May I know the camera used to take the image is modified or unmodify?

A normal not modified Canon 300D.

Have a nice day.

hi...
just wondering, by taking a plain white background image through the LPR filter, and calibrating some photo software, it is possible to reverse the effects of the colour shifts?

Hi KL,
it is possible but might be hard to find a true white surface with neutral and uniform reflectance property....

I was bored and I played with the image a bit. I created 'pseudo-flat' by applying excessive median filter and gaussian blur to wx's original image, then i blended the 'pseudo-flat' with the original.

no more green but alas, lost some reddish nebulosity data as well. :roll:
