Triplet RGB

[Earl]

I Finished this last night and have had a play with the data, there are a few interetin issues going on i need to look into, mostly the overall brown sky, and some of the stars are red on one edge blue on the other, When I tred to apply a luminance it all gets far worse... lots to learn with LRGB.

You don't sound like you're happy with it Earl but there's a lot to like about the image: Nice tight stars, not gone overly black with the background, not oversaturated. I like it

I agree, looks good Earl. Background doesnt look brown to me, are you using a colour calibrated monitor? What equipment was used to capture this?

The star colour issue is just registration of the three colour channels. If you have Registar just split and save them, re-register two of them to the third one, apply 'crop and pad' and then recombine them in Ps. I get this sometimes. Soon fixed.

On the other hand some global processing routine is damaging your stars. The are a bit mis-shapen and have dark halos. Deconvolution? Sharpening? I think it's best to exclude all stars from global processing systems. I think they're best left to themselves.
