First off, I have followed you and been a subscriber to your channel for a couple of years now. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in the astrophotography realm...much appreciated. Secondly, I know it has been a year since you made this video but if you still have the problem with the process console not returning automatically. When the console is open just click on the "stick" icon on the console panel. Again thanks for all you do to help make processing easier and fun. Kerry
Really great work, thanks to you I’m finding out that less is definitely more with the majority of Astro images, thanks Steve👍🏻 Can’t believe there are only 31 Likes on this video… what the ❓
Hello Steve awesome videos enjoy all your tutorials keep it up.. maybe you can help me with this I have a Explore Scientific 102 ED triplet with a Stellarvue 0.8X Reducer Flattener for f/7… my imaging camera is ZWO 1600mm pro, I use 7nm Otpolong filters… Whenever imaging Horsehead nebula I get a bad halo on the star Alnitak especially with my 7nm Oiii.. I know I’ve seen some halos get removed from some pics.. would you know of any other editing techniques I could try? Or does it mean I have to buy a new camera and filters so I won’t get that effect ? Thank a lot Steve
Thanks man! I struggled with this too, buying a 3nm oiii filter will help. But in the end swamping the oiii halo with lots of Ha luminance data will help.
@@enteringintospace4685 thank you very much man for Replying… last question Is there a brand you recommend for the 3nm filter because I know all the coatings are different in the filters thanks again keep up the kick ass images and videos 🔭📸
as far as I know curves should be applied BEFORE adding stars into image.. And thats manipulation when You decide which stars should be big and which one not.. This is not astrophotography.. But really cool tip with the noise mask!
Man I owe you a few beers for all these tutorials.. Thanks heaps for this video!!
I'll hold ya to it😉. Thanks!

Brilliant
Thanks Again for the tutorial. If I'm using an OSC, can I extract a Luminance layer? Using Extract CIE L* component?
Yep, extract it and apply lum noise reduction before reapplying.
@@enteringintospace4685 Thanks. Extract while linear, stretch lum layer separately and then noise reduction, correct?
@@jratino you got it!

@@llamarvasquez1803 Will do!!
I would definitely recommend Antlia filters. Agena astro sells them
@@enteringintospace4685 awesome man thanks again :)
Awesome work there mate Love that you still use Photoshop for the fine stuff etc.
Thanks! Yes ps still has tools I can't do without!
