Thanks for watching! Clear skies!
I commented on Bill's channel a few weeks ago that it may be time to sell all my narrowband filters and mono cameras. 🤯
These pixelmath scripts are sorcery. I am very impressed and when I compare to true mono/narrowband filter images they are equal in quality. Of course as time goes on these processes will evolve, and all I can say is, it's a great time to be alive as an astrophotographer. Pixinsight YT'rs such as yourself and many others, Bill Blanshan, and Russell Croman have spoiled us all.
As far as narrowband images, palettes and astrophotography as a whole, it's all beauty in the eye of the beholder. That Elephant Trunk is great Shawn. Clear minds and clear skies!
Hmm, and I plan to go mono and sell my OSC. Although I'm getting good results with duoband filters and making an SHO. Perhaps you need less total imaging time with mono?
I see a strong future for OSC cameras with these new software based image processes. It might be a little while longer, but I think one day OSC will be the norm for most backyard astrophotography. Maybe one day soon they will replace mono for people who just want pretty pictures to hang on the wall? Filters and color cameras are amazing now. It is crazy what is done now vs when I discovered astronomy 20 years ago.
Wow, thanks Shawn for the update and of course Bill for making the magic happen.
Thanks Rob!
Thank you Shawn and Yes, Bill is definitely changing Pixinsight for the better for me anyways 😊
Very awesome of you to say that!!!
GREAT Video Shawn. Really glad you took it the steps further for Mono . And the S curve attributes. Thanks man!
Another great video/tutorial, Sean. Thanks for updating us on the process, and referencing Bill and his work. Your content is great and much appreciated to us who are trying to improve out PI techniques. Clear skies!
Thanks Steve!!!
This is a huge timesaver. I just took my very first LExtreme images. Unfortunately of bad weather and moon conditions I got only 4 images. But it's incredible how much data you can get out of it right now. Learned a lot of PixInsight from your videos. Keep going on!
I've been following your techniques for a few years now, and I've learned so much from you. The video you did a couple of years ago looking at using OSC to get a Hubble type image was a revelation to me. But now, the game has been raised. Thanks so much for bringing this to the attention of the imaging community. Kudos to you and Bill for seriously top work!
That's legit amazing. Thank you!
Thanks!!!
Great video, Shawn! As always. Had applied the HOO normalization for my OSC pictures and has worked very well for me. Though, a slightly modified version of your own process of a couple of years ago, if I remember well, gives you more control. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!!
Awesome Shawn. Thanks for sharing Bill's OSC method. I have been using your method (or modified version) for HOO but though the SHO was a bit cumbersome for me, also I like the HOO look. This new method seems easy enough though. Cheers Kurt
Thanks Kurt!!
Another great video, Shawn! You're PI video tutorials are excellent! I always enjoy learning more, so keep up the good work!
Thanks Shawn! You've seen my results. Love it! Thanks for the video!
Wow very cool. Great Shawn. Pixinsight Jedi Master.
This is very nice tool. Thank you for sharing Shawn san !!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Shawn for such a great video!!!!
Regards,
Bill Blanshan
Brilliant video! Thank You sir!
Awesome Shawn. I'm learning PI and you are one of the best teachers. I love OSC solutions. Its been five months since you made the video. Any updated recommendations?
I tried it, it works great
Awesome work putting this together Shawn! :-) Clear skies man!
Thanks man!
Great tutorial, thanks 👍🏻
Thanks! It's all really helpful and easy to follow, but I can't figure out how you got the histogram curve to show in the Curves Transformation window. Seems like a handy thing to have.
Thanks!
So cool, thank you!!
Another great video Shawn. Thanks for taking the time to pull this together. How long have you had that Darth Vader in the corner? I just noticed it.
Haha. Darth has been there about 6 months. I got it for free from a friend who didn't want it anymore. I'm looking for a Capt Kirk one now. Lol 😆
Sean, thanks for the tutorial! A bit of feedback on sound quality: This video had some annoying high end crackles when you pronounced "s" sometimes but also when talking normally . Not sure if it's the quality setting or if the treble is boosted too high.
Can you make a Hubble palette with a quadband filter like the Antilia Quadband?
Great tool! Anybody have the web link where I can find it? Thanks.
Where do I find the icon sets that are used in this video?
Do you have a link to download to process icons?
I get a lot of errors when i try to run them on my images. Why? "invalid character in expression" Help=)
When you say the image needs to be stretched to use the script do you mean permanently stretched?
Yes permanently stretched.
Hi, does this script work with an old Pixinsight 1.8.05 version?
how do you istall these?
You don't really install them so much as import them to your workspace. Right click anywhere on the workspace and select import icons. Then go to the folder you saved them in, select them and they will show up in the top left corner of the workspace.
@@VisibledarkAstro ok,Founded.thx.
How do you add these to PI? I have tried dragging them in but I can't ever find them in the menu even though it says added.
I believe you will only see icons placed on your PixInsight workspace.
How do you get the HOO tab to drag and drop?
Not sure what you mean. I just click and hold on it and drag it over and drop it on the image.
so how would i get these pixelmath scripts to show up on my pixinsight
Go to Bills Chanel, Shawn has provided the link above and Bill has provided access to his Pixel math there 😁
@@astrobri I have found where the file is I just can't figure out how to get that process to show up in my Pixinsight software
@@delmarvawx once downloaded you can just double click it and it will open pix or from inside pix go to the file and
Drag and drop onto pix window
How does one install Bills .xml file ?
Update: As a Mac user when I downloaded the Bill's NB Normalization script, the downloaded file appeared with two extensions namely Bills_NB_NormalizationV4.xpsm.xml
I don't know if that is the same for other computers and operating systems.
Dragging that file to Pixinsight opened the script editor which is not the desired result. By deleting the extension .xml, dragging the new file Bills_NB_NormalizationV4.xpsm onto Pixinsight produces two modules as shown in the VisibleDark video, HOONormalizationV4 and SHONormalizationV3.
