When you come to stretch your data, as David Stearn commented below you may wish to try unlinked stretching! My advice would be to create a clone of your image right before stretching, stretch one linked, the other unlinked, then try NN on both - continue to process the one that you like best, close the other! 👍 Clear skies!

I am now finally following only your Pixinsight Processing, and I am totally enjoying it. In fact after I posted one on fb, got a really good comment from the guy who taught me how to do all the spade work and install Scripts. Hats off to him, cause he sure had some patience for a 72 year old like me, a Dummy frankly, had to be spoon fed every time by him. Now totally enjoying processing. And all thank to you, as I found your video tutorial that clicked with me. Now I am trying to figure out how to process Galaxies, hope you have a similar simple way to process any Galaxy. I am not aiming for olympic medal, but that my friends on fb, fell that it is wow... Hahaha.

One tip about BlurXT - if you run it twice - once with the 'correct only' box ticked, that'll get rid of the chromatic abberation and misshapen stars. Then untick that box and run it a second time like you normally would. Then your stars will be much cleaner.

Awesome as usual, I've been using your previous osc to hubble tutorial to work with my images from my Artemis C pro and Askar d1 6nm dual narrowband filter with varying results. I have a form of colour blindness that makes processing astro images really complicated in broadband, but in narrowband you can't really be wrong, as it's all artists interpretation of the data... Got my Bahtinov mask from your ebay store the other day and resolved an issue I was having with my oag and main cameras focus being slightly out, guiding was much improved as a result, so thank you for that!

Great video as always! Going to try it on my first narrowband capture ever of the Eagle nebula! I was doing some testing and didn’t expect to be able to capture any data just seeing if I could get focus and stuff like that. I didn’t even polar align. Somehow my guiding was 0.7 arcsec so I just picked a target from the sky atlas in NINA and left it overnight. Using L-ultimate and 4 min subs I got 3 hours of data. I was shocked to see the images! Never seen that many stars before since I was doing broadband from Bortle 8/9 skies.

That was very useful and well done-thanks very much! And while it’s hard to fix that halo in Pixinsight, you can deal with it pretty easily in Photoshop if you bring the starless image into Photoshop and use the “remove” tool on it. Does a pretty credible job if you aren’t opposed to that sort of thing.

Luke, thank you for creating this valuable video. A question I have concerns screening. As you did in the video, I use the “unscreen” option in StarXterminator and then rescreen the stars when I put them back into the starless image. However, I don’t know what “screening” is and I haven’t found an explanation online. Any chance you could provide a brief explanation?
@lukomatico
@lukomatico 8 ай бұрын
Hey there my friend! screening is an option to allow you to remove and reinsert the stars less destructively than pure addition does - addition does just that, adds the starless + stars together, inevitably leading to bright spots & burnout where stars are reintegrated to the already bright image, rescreening is more akin to a gentle blend, helping preserve highlights - Hope that helps!

Hey Luke hope all is well. Many of us in the hobby are stuck to free software. I feel like many of the bigger astro youtubers mainly use PixInsite and create PixInsite tutorials. Have you ever used the PIxel math tool within Siril? And if so, would you consider making an in depth video on Pixel Math in Siril? I know the tool isnt identical to PixInsites Pixel math, but is still very powerful / capable. Regardless. Great work and clear skies.

I think nobody should cheap out on software. It is essential for AP. Compared with anything else you need, pixinsight is not that expensive (they just raised the price to 300usd, I paid 230 back then) it is a one time buy and will probably not get cheaper with time.

Hey mate! - my friend @DeepSpaceAstro has been making a lot of wonderful tutorials with Siril, - he may have what you're looking for! - around the time Siril got Pixel math I was already knee deep into PixInsight so decided to just stick to what I was currently learning, - it may be something I'll revisit but I feel like I'd need to relearn the program at this point to make worthwhile content - cheers! :-)
