The Dangerously Horizontal Telescope Company proudly brings you The Lagoon. Around 1h20 with a dSlr. Thanks for looking and as ever, hints and tips for improving most welcome. TIA.

Awesome, I love it. In my post you mentioned deconvolution algorithms, is there anyway you go about doing this?

[Gerry Casa Christiana]

Great shot. I want to know how you did it! Not how to improve it. Very nice. Totally jealous! 

Well done.

deconvolution algorithms

Hi. There are loads of them. If you want to try it at a low level then IRIS is a good place to start. StarTools includes the best and most flexible decon I've tried so far and unlike other software, is applicable and reversible anywhere in your workflow. HTH.

Wow great image?

[Gerry Casa Christiana]

Love to see a before and after picture. 

Here is mine. I'm going to try deconvolution on mine  

My camera isn't modified so I struggle with H Alpha a bit

+1. There are artefacts left and down. I cropped those, removed the gradient and did a 2x2bin before the decon. The jpg doesn't have much data; with your raw, it should be less 'in your face'. HTH.

Thanks for doing that! I'll definitely have a go with the raw hopefully the result will be even better. 

Lots to learn but good fun.

Just looked at startools, it looks like it would be so useful! I have heard that you can download the trial version and then just screenshot your finished version?

Hi. If you're a student, just write to the coder Ivo and explain your situation. It's only $50 anyway and you could always pay or make a contribution at a later date. But yes, otherwise, it's fully functional. HTH.

Hi I tried the deconvolution on photoshop and I have to say it wasn't very good. I can't run startools but I had another pass just using levels. 

I think it's better. I need to add more subs.

+1. smart sharp? I still think you'd be better removing the edge anomalies first;)

Yes I tried smart sharp. To me it looked wrong. Yes I always forget to crop!
