    Thank you for this tutorial! I learned tons of new stuff!
    One tip I have to bring out the colors of nebulae (and even galaxies) is to change the type of stretch to inverse modified asinh transform or inverse GHT (regular ones desaturate the image), the color stretch model to saturation stretch, and then select a symetry point of the part you want to add color, click on the eye dropper, and then stretch! You can use Generalized H.S. to do a more general saturation, and Modified A.T. to do a more color-specific saturation. It works like magic!
    And keep in mind that this doesn't stretch the image, it only saturates it. I hope this helps!

    Wonderful video. There is no better astro photo than this one with the real colors of the stars. Since your camera is color, it is so easy to spend an hour with short exposures at the highest dynamic range without a filter or with only an LP filter to add the real colors of the stars to the background of the beautiful Rosette Nebula. Thanks!

      Cheers from a very cloudy north of England. Have you ever looked at AstroDenoisePyGUI as a free piece of standalone denoise software? Just downloaded today I'm astonished how good it is. Some limited discussions on Cloudynights. I don't have PI or PS so seems like a decent and free Blur Xterminator alternative, given that Sirils capabilities aren't that great yet. No instructions as far as I can tell, so just ran with the defaults.

    I am 72 years old and started learning about astrophotography in January of this year with a Seestar and later purchased a ZWO AM5, 60 mm refractor, cooled color camera etc. You have been a big help to me by teaching me Siril. I do astrophotography from my Bortle 8 backyard with a Ha OIII filter. I have followed your Dual Narrowband Filter & the Hubble Palette video and produced some images. I am planning to buy a SII OIII filter and wondering how to get a SII mono image from my color camera and combine with Ha and OII for a SHO image. Maybe an idea for a video.

    Hi Rich, This video really helps. I am using the Askar Colour magic filter, one filter for HA & O3, while another one is O3 & Sii. Does it need another script for O3 & Sii. In this case, how to seperate the HA, O3 and Sii, then recompose the image in Siril. Would really appreciate if you can make a video on this, that would really helps. Thank you.

    • @DeepSpaceAstro
      @DeepSpaceAstro  4 місяці тому +1

      The Ha and SII lines are very close in the spectrum. Ha is 656.3nm and SII is 672 nm. There's no way of distinguishing which contributes to the red pixel. However, could try running the Extarct_HaOIII against your SII/OIII data, and use the Ha stack as your SII, and blend with the Ha & OIII stacks.

    • @DeepSpaceAstro
      @DeepSpaceAstro  5 місяців тому

      I'm not sure if the SII could be extracted. That might be a better question to ask in the Siril forums. I'm thinking with an OSC the SII would be too close to the Ha in the spectrum. Maybe use the Extract Ha only script for the D2 and use that as the SII, then blend it in to your liking? I'm just spit balling though. Not really sure, sorry.

    You covered a lot of my doubts about this workflow, the only part that was a bit rushed was the stackign part but I will search for the stacking tutorial, overall I learned a lot in this one as I am very confortable with GHST but seeing how you use the tools that is slightly different from how I do connected lots of dots here, same for how you do color calibration... I usually use the white poing around a bright star not the nebula itself, now I wanna take a look on the difference it make when I am stretching, makes more sense your way. Thanks for the masterclass

    Nice one Rich, regarding the star colours when using my dual filter I tend to do a stretch until the colours start to show, then run remove green noise, invert & run it again. I then go back to the original star image do some stretching & tend to get some nice blue & orange stars pop as well as white. I do tend to do this in photoshop as that's where I recombine the stars but I cannot see any reason why it shouldn't work in SIRIL. It's a tip I gained from James from the DSO imager channel, he tends to use Pixinsight for most of his processing but it can work in other programs to.

    A tip for ASIAIR users: The ASIAIR stacks the calibration files for you. The Siril scripts won't work with these files as it is looking for more than 1 file in the flats, biases and darks directory. A very simple fix is to just duplicate the files in each of those three directories. Just Ctl C, Ctl V in the directory; the names don't matter. There are now two files in each directory and the scripts work. Maybe this is already known, but I didn't see it anywhere.

    Hi Rich! Great stuff, really close to my workflow. I’ll have to try background extraction on each file before composing. I’ll also have to try the pixel math.
    Question: My last project I thought it’d be cool to incorporate one session of unfiltered OSC into the sirilic stack just for the stars. I ended up with a starnet decomposition error related to images must have same channels and dimensions, I’m not sure what the actual problem between the result files was. I ended up merging the stars back in photoshop, which worked great. Would’ve been nice to figure it out in Siril/Starnet though. I’ll keep working on it. Any ideas on this?

Goal was to get full color stars on narrowband nebula. Sirilic handled that great, btw.

What I don’t find, or understand in the docs is how best to get the two images to same dimensions. I brought this up on Siril GitLab and they pointed me to the docs 😂

So my guess is that the Ha part needs more integration time to be able to match enough stars with the Oiii part.
