Hi

We have just posted our first image from a visit to Les Granges. We are usiing DeeepSky Stacker and the originals had more colour in the Canon Raw. Wpouls appreciate any advice on how to bring back the colour.

We are quite new to astrophotograpghy having only dabbled before.

Hi Christine,

I've just visited your blog to have a look at M22 but couldn't find your image. I must be missing something lol - I was looking for it ~ in the sky ~ the other night and couldn't find it then either!

Sorry, I am still very hopeless with things like PS and DSS so can't help you get your colour back, but I look forward to seeing your image when I find it - Les Granges seems to have excellent skies, I'd love to go there!

Hi, welcome to SGL

Can we see the pic? You can upload it to SGL.

There are some tutorials on how to get the best out of your DSS stacked image on here. Dont worry, all that lovely colour hasn't gone anywhere, it just needs bringing out!

Hi

I had a quick go with your jpeg, and it shows that there is colour in there.

Of course it would be better to work from the raw files rather than a jpeg.

To do this in Photoshop go here:

Image > Adjustments > Match Colour

Then push up the intensity.

This is a good way of increasing saturation, without adding additional noise.

Nice, and thanks Aza for making it even better :D:D!!!!!
