Rho Ophiuchi Nebula Complex

Rho Ophiuchi in HaRGB, I was finally able to add some Ha data to an old RGB edit I done a long time ago. Rho Ophiuchi is vibrant and nebulous. It was difficult for me to perform background extraction without eliminating too much data, so after numerous attempts, I decided to select relatively few selection points on specific places. It is quite simple to oversaturate while editing, but I opted to give it a more natural tone and emphasise all of the Ha parts.
