Re: Does anyone have any general tips for getting good dual band (HOO) color?

Just to put in my 2 cents worth, personally picking the right target is important as there should be at least a certain portion of Oiii there. Two examples are the Rosette nebula https://flic.kr/p/2jMt7rs which has some but not a lot of Oiii and M42 https://flic.kr/p/2mE2yVT Generally, I usually pus...

Re: HDR in Startools 8

I'm not having much success no matter how I adjust the settings. Ivo - would have a recommended setting under reveal that corresponds with reveal core? Thanks. Richard

Re: Adding Ha to LRGB

The new feature is excellent! Here a link to a lrgb version of my target https://www.flickr.com/gp/rkonrad/41sdp0 and Halrg with nbaccent https://www.flickr.com/gp/rkonrad/633vL1. These are not my final versions as I have more work to do.

Re: Adding Ha to LRGB

I just realized there is a NBaccents slot in compose for me to insert my ha data. I will try it!

HDR in Startools 8

I love the enhancements and improvements in the new startools version. I'm struggling a bit with the hdr - reveal function. I'm trying to get it to work as "reveal core" in the earlier versions. Ivo (or others), what settings in the module should I adjust to get what I want.

Thanks Richard

Adding Ha to LRGB

I think this topic has been mentioned before but I don't recall a solution - sorry if I missed it. I have seen so many amazing images of halrgb online but I have never been successful in my processing. This is what I have tried: 1. I have mixed (at the linear level) Ha with L in a variety of percent...

M42 (again but what a magnificent object)

This is a Bi-colour image (Ha + Oiii) of M42 with just an hour from each filter. The core is blown out but I did the best I could to make it as good looking as possible thanks to StarTools. Done with version 7. https://www.flickr.com/photos/rkonrad/51626160637/in/photostream/ Thanks for looking. Ric...

Re: opening files

So sorry I didn't reply - yes that was exactly the problem. Garuda (kde) seems fairly full featured yet this software wasn't included. Thanks!

opening files

I have what seems a somewhat unusual problem. When I attempt to load a file into Startools for processing, instead of staying in startools, I go directly to "Dolphin" the default file manager of KDE. I'm using Garuda Linux. In this case, I attempted to load a luminance file. That's all I know....Tha...
