A mix and compare quick and easy versus long and more involved and then a critical evaluation of the results would be great. What more do you get with how much more effort and would it be a reasonable thing to do for each person’s time and talent.
I’d really like to see some very focused deep dive into a specific tool going for a particular result. This is not to say a long video by any means. For example, your demo of luminance extraction and applying blur on RGB with convolution on lum was golden. Cheers! Doug
thanks doug. im a little behind since the wife decided to buy a shed while i waws on my statycation so ive been digging and plowing dirt and gravel lol
First, skip the super basics (frame selection, Blink, WBPP). Just start with your master light(s). Do a quick process that is "good enough" for most and then show or redo what you might do differently to take it to the next level. Almost anyone can do the basic 15 min process, but what are the decision points and techniques for that next step? Masking parts of the image for more processing? HDRMT/MLT/LHE?
Not exactly what you were asking. But I tend to image whenever I can. And it usually under less then favorable conditions. I would like some tricks or techniques dealing with issues. Like poor transparency images, Low integration, wrong filter choice. Moon gradients, Poor tracking(wind,seeing). Amateurs like myself would like to try to salvage what we get. :)
i learned a lot last year during the canada wildfire smoke. the images were not great but i managed to take out a lot of bloat and stray light with photoshop. setiastros new script will take care of the halos. its very hard to over come the noise so during bad nights clusters are your friend. i really enjoy shooting and processing them especially wiith the redcat because you can fit so much in there and make the stars pop and not overwhelm everything
Both sounds like a good Plan to me 😊!!
working on them as we speak
A mix is the best ! THX
Thanks for listening. I think that’s the plan. Good better best

Awesome feedback. I think a good better best approach will be fun. And then do that for a osc image and then a narrowband

@@easyastroimages5818 YW! Did you talk her in to putting a retractable roof on it? 😉
@@AstroAF lmao. Hell no
A mix of both would cover more bases from beginners to advanced.
i think we will do 1 image and 3 tutorials..good better best?
@@easyastroimages5818 that sounds really good.

def agree man. gonna do it on a osc and narrowband image

Thank you. I like your direct style. Keep it up
The devil is in the details - the longer the vid the more likely you are going to hit a bit that has snag me up...
