The H/HO/O image is simply pasted on top of the RGB image and set to Hue. This is my favorite, and most dramatic of the blended images. If you want something more vibrant, you can use the Selective Color tool to tweak the reds, or use the layer setting in Image 5 – Hue. You’ll notice more blue around the edges of the Jellyfish as well as some other areas, but the red will dull slightly. You may find that you can keep the opacity at 100% and no need to reduce the curves in this one. This is a similar process to Image 3, except this time you’ll set the H/HO/O layer to Color. After pasting, you may want to adjust the opacity of the layer, along with bringing the curves down to avoid blowing out brighter parts of the nebula. This very subtly allows some blues to come through on the edges of the Jellyfish. The first is created by using the Screen setting for the layer. The rest of the images are a blend of the H/HO/O and RGB images using different layer settings in Photoshop. This is definitely not as natural of a look, but it really gives the nebulosity center stage. Experiment and see what you think looks best. I like to set the layer to either Screen, Lighten or Pin Light.
