Moving from broadband to narrowband...
TiffsAndAstro replied to TiffsAndAstro's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
this version is HOO as far as i can tell, though i just used Oiii unmolested in both blue and green channels. Also, i didn't bother removing any gradient, as........ i couldn't really see any gradient narrowband stars aren't great, but i don't hate them. -

ty for that and ty for your youtube review of this filter. i doubt i would have even known about it. it does appear to be optolong l-extreme alike, though i can't really tell -
4 hours ago clear outside said green from 8pm to 5am. Now it doesn't. I think clear outside is probably best of the weather forecasting sites

i've redone ngc 6992 (i got its name wrong) and i think this shows a tiny hint of some of the stuff that makes Sarek's recent image so amazing, so im happy im moving in the right direction. Need reasons (apart from cloud) to not try and repeat my 4 panel of the veil nebula tonight .... -

little bit disapointed with my current m16 project. i liked the 1st dual narrow band results so i tried stacking that and my previous broadband sessions, but seemed to lose detail. i took more dnb data last night and combined that with the 1st dbn session and got the following. i've tried to make the pillars as contrasty as possible, but its not great. -
honestly, ive been doing this only a few months so bare that in mind. sadly, the best thing is more total integration time. possibly many hours, depending on your gear and your light pollution situation. more total integration time is something im trying but failing to do myself. there's so much stuff i want to image also the reason your stars have the big blue fringing is because you're stretching the whole image and not the background seperately from the stars. get starnet++ installed and working in siril its pretty easy.

i think this came out pretty nice for a quick 20 minute process. Im certain other would do much better. did a tiny crop, then background extraction and noise reduction in graxpert. back into siril to run starnet, stretched background, ran unpurple tool on stars in gimp to remove some slight purple fringing then put stars and starless back together in siril

trying a "quick preview process" on this atm. having internet issues because virgin media are a fantastic company, so bare with me also, lol, my pc is old so i might have to bin your image 2x2 to stop starnet blue screen of deathing it. so it will be a quarter of the size

Flash in the pan product. Besides, my filter arriving has confounded conventional theory. -

Either one is amazing

less extreme stretch but just basic osc. currently playing with Ha/Oiii split version but don't like it very much so far. seems to lose detail, maybe. trying some more but clear skies tonight i think -
Did I damage my ASI2600MM Pro???

See if flats deal with it? -
Moving from broadband to narrowband...
TiffsAndAstro replied to TiffsAndAstro's topic in Getting Started With Imaging
so i think this next image is quite shocking. whether its shockingly good for its 3960 seconds total exposure or my multiple session almost 37000 seconds broadband comparison image was just so bad im not sure. this is drizzled and a quick stretch, no broadband stars or anything. first image is my 37k seconds masterpeice. second image is the narrowband i took last night of 3960 seconds. i like this sv220 filter a lot already. Trying ha/Oiii split editing now. I linearly matched the Oiii to the ha. Seemed to make the Oiii less contrasty but only my first attempt so I'm probably wrong -

i don't have any of that. i only just still have a tablet to use as a flats light source -
How hard can cad be, lol? I have some basic experience with 3d modelling. I have way more things to consider before that stage , for example sourcing the three infinitely stiff rods to make my pyramid over the primary. On the upside, pyramids and a quartz crystal mirror will energise each others energy or summit, I read

It's a really nice image and could perhaps be split into two if you wanted

My 9 seconds flats seem to have worked out ok. It was just a bit of a shock at the time. I'll post the short M27 I did and crescent nebula once I've had a chance to quick process them. I remember thinking one 2 mins sub on m27 looked better than my much bigger previous stack. I could clearly see the dark red jet outside the circular outline. I may be getting slightly carried away though.
