mightymonoped Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Thought it worth having a go at this again but using some newly acquired techniques and tools. I'm quite happy with this one apart from the purple dust bunny that stands out (to me anyway) in the upper left quadrant. Have tried removing it on Starless image with Clone Stamp or Healing but not to any satisfaction. Any alternative techniques (not requiring PI) would be appreciated 🙂 Two separate capture sessions, one Narrowband using the l-eNhance, the other broadband for the stars, using the l-Pro. SHO combined using RGB Combine in APP (using Ha-OIII Mono for SII, with Ha and OIII extracts) registered against RGB Star image and both saved in APP Starless version of SHO created Strayer of RGB version created Both versions processed in PS CC Strayer merged in before final processing.

TerryMcK Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 If you hadn't mentioned the purple blob I would never have noticed it 🙂 . I use clone stamp for odd things like this at roughly these settings Obviously you can change the radius size to suit and select somewhere close by the area being painted.

Sonyme Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 A cracking image. Can't see a bunny.....I don't think. The two bright stars above the trunk are an unusual shape. are they likely to be double stars or simply several stars following a similar line of sight?

Gary They've been like that consistently in a few different captures if I remember rightly Gary. It's either a double or same line of sight.

Astrobdlbug Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Its a triplet - I have been trying to process them and get separation in my version but its incredibly difficult to process the other stars and keep this bunch small enough that they dont merge togther. Love the colour palette -s pooky purple... Bryan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonyme Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I wonder if their apparent brightness means all three are relatively close to each other. Gary 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
