M33 reprocessing with GHS and NoiseXTerminator - how could I do without ?

  Hi,

 

Last month I posted an image of M33 taken with my 8" f/4 Newtonian near Paris (Bortle 7):

 

 

Since then I added two tools to my PI workflow (new to me): GHS for stretching and NoiseXTerminator as sole noise reduction process (single-pass in non-linear mode).   I also simplified the deconvolution  process by getting rid of masking, following Jon Rista tutorial (giving also better star shapes).

 

I cannot believe how much better results I get (well, to my eyes), with a much simpler workflow...  truly game-changing.

 

Here's the result (right click for full resolution):

Clear skies,

Great image! wait till you add Russ Cromans Blur XTerminator!!

 

I tried it, I found it more efficient on  small objects than big ones (but I have yet to try on M33),

 

clear skies,

 

Dan
