Image processing


Deep sky processing

I am roughly following this tuturial (in French) from the YouTube channel AstroNOTE.


With Siril

  • Preprocessing, alignement and stacking
  • Neutralisation of the sky background, white balance, histogram
  • Gradient and green noise removal

With Photoshop

  • Levels, alignement of colors, curve
  • High-passs filter on DSO (incrustation mode) + sharpen more
  • Noise reduction
  • Saturation layer mask on DSO
  • Saturation layer mask on DSO + stars
  • Saturation layer mask on sky background
  • Star reduction
  • Sky background noise reduction
  • Levels, curve
