Last week we explored using Affinity's Hue/Saturation/Luminosity (HSL) tool to achieve any false color palette without the limitations imposed by scripts. We can push color control even further by selecting the primary colors of the astrophoto masters as well as how we composite those masters together, giving total control of the colorscape of any astro photo. This technique works with images shot with any monochrome or color camera.
