New Processing Magic On The Wizard Nebula

Miss Me!? Check out this video as I apply the Orton Affect to my astrophotography image.

[@nellospiteri3534]

The boring stuff is what us starting astrophotographers also appreciate!

[@qx3V45p]

Almost thought something bad happened.... Gardening is a great hobby as well though. Great to see you again

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks for the support!

[@martincampbell2073]

Great to see you back on KZbin! Enjoy your tutorials and your infectious humour.

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks so much!!

Great vid. I love how the Ortonizing brought out the colors. The nice thing about the Orton Effect is it allows you to push your colors to deeper enrichment while minimizing the tendency to saturation clip. Of course, I am always a huge fan of moving over to layer based, nondestructive processing to round out development. It allows you take your images further. You've inspired me to re-shoot the Wizard now that I have the SCT in the observatory and can get some serious FL and aperture on it.

[@martinaspoljaricpracaic92]

Nice, I always do that for every image, it makes it look more "alive"

[@enteringintospace4685]

Good deal!

[@nikaxstrophotography]

Great tutorial but DBE is going the way of the dinosaur with the new gradient correction and GraXpert

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks! I'm old now....we get along. Lol. My GraXpert hasn't been working but I fixed that over the weekend

[@Aztronoob]

always care!

[@joedenisco6033]

Missed you Steve. Dont go away anymore. Cant take it. JD

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks! No more astro lazy!

[@Rigo-VDM]

After "long waiting" (he love's fishing more 🤣) again a very fine tutorial Steve 💯

[@normhughes9777]

good stuff. will def try this next time. thanks for your tutorials

[@Sweatsox8]

Steve lives!!! Been too long brutha.

[@enteringintospace4685]

I'm alive!!! Hahaha!!!! OK I got carried away😉

[@ErikStitt]

I care and I'm like, "Where you been?"........Don't ever do that again.....ya' hear?

[@enteringintospace4685]

Haha!! I wont....pinky promise😉

[@billblanshan3021]

Lol, love the intro bro! LMFAO. Foraxx blend will not work well with Narrowband normalization because the way Foraxx math creates an unnatural blend. The Foraxx math is not good, I am debating doing a video on this but I don't want to upset anyone because there are a lot of problems with this math.

[@enteringintospace4685]

Ah! Makes sense....honestly I use that tool more for the nb star color. How's the colorized script coming!?

[@craigwallace6601]

Gotta do a video now after that claim! I see a lot of people using and referencing Foraxx, so if it is not valid, it's probably worth an explanation. Cheers!

[@mikegphoto]

Stoked to see ya🔥

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks!!

[@roberteigenberger5064]

Hello, love your videos, you do a lot that I don’t see from other people. So question…how would I adapt this process to OSC? I use dual narrowband filters.

[@enteringintospace4685]

Thanks! Which part of the process specifically?

[@roberteigenberger5064]

Channel combination. I currently shoot with 2 filters. Ha/Oiii and Sii/Oiii. Then I split each one into separate R,G and B

[@shubinternet]

@34:00 - no, I’m not buying a subscription to photoshop. Not now. Not ever. If nothing else, I’ve already paid enough for PixInsight plus all the *Xterminator plugins. Can you do similar processing in PI?

[@FPVA71]

I'm watching this video while eating a tiramisu...but you don't care lol

[@enteringintospace4685]

If it's like chocolate chip cookies I care....I swear!

[@FPVA71]

@@enteringintospace4685 It's a great video mate, thank you for putting it together and sharing it with us

[@TheMje1963]

So you crawled out from under your rock? Welcome back to the world

[@enteringintospace4685]

It was tough....I like my rock😉 Thanks!

[@shubinternet]

@8:01 - the problem here is that you dragged the container underneath your PIP video that you overlaid on the desktop recording. So, now we can’t see anything about what you’re doing with this container. Please try again, this time putting your PIP video window somewhere else on the screen where it doesn’t block anything that you’re trying to show us.

[@williamhouse5081]

I kind a sorta care.

[@enteringintospace4685]

Well, that moderately excites me
