excellent tutorial, thank you vary much. Doing these steps on my own picture, I noticed a yellowish stain on the edge of the moon, due to CA, I think. Is there a way to get rid of it?
Many thanks for doing this demonstration. I have had many problems processing lunar images using GIMP and this will help. In retrospect, I think that problems were caused by oversharpening using wavelets in Registax and underexposed images. But I took some new images on Friday night and will have a go at processing them in GIMP.
@@AstroFarsography with regard to the high pass filter I realised when playing with it that it is possible to change the layer mode within the filter window from 'replace' to whatever you wish to do with it which makes it much easier to see how the filter is interacting with the layer below before you commit to the settings.
As someone very new to astrophotography, your tutorials and demonstrations have been so helpful! I saw your video had been posted and after seeing we could do it along with you using your file, I went straight to the laptop to give it a go. Very insightful and hopefully once I have a colour camera I can use some of the techniques here to improve my own images. Cheers Ruz, top man!
Thanks James, I'm glad to be able to help! Have yoh seen my North America nebula tutorial with GIMP also? There's data available with that one also :) good luck once you get your camera, I'm sure you're gonna do great
I have seen that one but not had any data of my own to try it out with and didn't realise you'd made some available for that - I know what I'm doing later 😁
Great video cheers. Downloaded and followed along, thanks for explaining the HiPass. Would love something similar on a faint nebula or galaxy, I often struggle bringing out details without overloading the background noise.
Thanks for a great tutorial on GIMP. I haven't really used it before. Do you find this offers advantages or additional capabilities over Photoshop in certain (or all) cases?
Each moon image is different so you may need to use slightly different settings. If your moon is turning blue I try changing your white balance/colour temp to a warmer setting
Well done Ruz. I always learn something on these GIMP tutorials. Do not hesitate to release more GIMP material! Clear skies.
Thanks Francois! I have some plans for a couple more GIMP tutorials in the future so watch this space!
Thank you. Excellent tutorial; I really appreciated it.
Thanks for posting the Gimp videos! I learned to use it from your video.
I am now seeing your video processing the moon dude

Excellent stuff, I never knew how to use that hue-saturation one before and also the high pass filter was a revelation. Thank you 🙂
Thanks Ginny glad yoh enjoyed it! Yeah high pass is such an amazing filter when used right, it's definitely one of my favourite sharpening tools

Great tutorial Ruzz Gimp is a pretty powerful tool to use.
Excellent tutorial mate
This is my goto vid!

Nice tutorial Ruiz, I'm using gimp for my Astrophotos!
Great video!
I do step by step the same treatments as the video but my moon just turns blue... I can't understand why, does anyone have an explanation?

@@AstroFarsography oh ok thank, I will try !
