Dang it Roland! Now I can't unsee that poor mammoth!

Oh man Rolando... how do you come up with these things? Lol...
Dean, Excellent image! Love the dust! You know I'm a suckered for it. I gotta see this on a bigger screen. Really cool scene. For the stars, try cranking up the saturation on the stars only image before adding them back in. |

Dean, been out of pocket all day, just got to this. LOVE how you've handled this! I am still trying to figure out my own workflow for dark nebulae. Very strange beasts to process I find.

Wow, super work Dean. Very beautiful, very well processed.Thank you everyone for the kind words. I had a lot of trouble with this data and the only way I was able to bring out all of that faint dust was to get StarXTerminator and use it to separate out the stars and just work on the dust separately and then put the stars back in later. I know... people have been using StarXTerminator and Starnet++ to do this for a while but what can I say? :-) Anyway, now I have a new tool in the tool box. -- Dean Jacobsen Astrobin Image Gallery - https://www.astrobin.com/users/deanjacobsen/ |

I like that a lot, Dean! Plenty of interesting dust detail. Karen AP

beautifully rendered Dean, very 3D and sublime details. It's hard to resist the urge to overdo the contrast in the dust, i think you did it nicely On Tue, Nov 29, 2022 at 10:38 AM Dean Jacobsen <deanjacobsen@...> wrote: Hi All, --

It sort of does look like a Woolly Mammoth. :-)

Anyway, here is my version of the Barnard 10 area: A Woolly Mammoth after being extruded thru the fan blades of a 747.

This latest image was from last weeks session. I have been trying to figure out how to process it for about a week or so. My imspiration was fellow group member Andy Ermolli's image of the same field. This is a link to Andy's image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/andyinsea/52512707930/ I finally purchased Russell Croman's StarXTerminator, installed it in PixInsight and I was able to highly process the starless nebula portion [also de-niosed with NoiseXTerminator - perhaps too much] and then add the stars back in. Not much color in the stars though. Perhaps an artifact of my processing or the fact that I used unity gain [gain 158] on the ASI2400MC this time. I may go back to gain 0 as Andy's image was taken with the same camera at gain 0 so it doesn't appear that I would be losing any faint nebula at that gain setting. Anyway, here is my version of the Barnard 10 area: https://www.astrobin.com/full/9e912l/0/ Details: - Mach2 unguided with 180 sec. exposures - FSQ-106 at f/3.6 with the 0.72x 645 reducer - ZWO ASI2400MC Pro OSC camera - gain 158, temp -10 C -- Dean Jacobsen Astrobin Image Gallery - https://www.astrobin.com/users/deanjacobsen/ -- Roland Christen Astro-Physics |
