wolfman_55 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hi All,I've re-visited my recent attempt at the Pinwheel Galaxy having spent time watching some of Annie's astro videos about image processing. I think I've made some improvements, but as usual all comments gratefully received:This is 50 x 900s, with darks and flats.Dave xanthic and +Ibbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithysteve Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hi Dave, that is a great image, well worth the time and effort. A beauty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red dwalf Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 it does look full of detail but looks a bit noisy on the full blown image but i`m certain that can be fixed to make it look smoother, i find the processing the most difficult part, capturing is a doodle.

Couldn't agree more. I've sharpened the core of the galaxy to bring out the structure better. This increases the noise if you zoom in to much. Processing is as much artistic interpretation as scientific fact methinks.... Dave Antares_Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antares_Paul Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I may be in a minority here but I prefer noisy, wild, under processed images. It's a harsh environment out there and the false colour/Hubble palette types aren't my thing at all. There is an artistic beauty to those types of images, granted <3 Being a dab hand at producing noisy, wild, under processed images - I would say that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
