This gallery contains images that I have assembled from data contained in the Hubble Legacy Archive. Most have been done before in official NASA/Hubble releases, so these are my renditions. Some are from narrowband data and some from RGB data, depending on the object.

FITS Liberatoris used to transition the data into Photoshop CS3 where further processing can be done.

Some of the Palettes used are Hubble (Red=SII, Green=Ha, and Blue=OIII) and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CHT or HOS) Palette (Red=Ha, Green=OIII, and Blue=SII)

The easiest objects to assemble are the smaller objects that can be contained on one frame - such as planetary nebulae and smaller galaxies. It gets real tough when multiple frames from the archive must be assembled as a mosaic.
