Great vid. I love how the Ortonizing brought out the colors. The nice thing about the Orton Effect is it allows you to push your colors to deeper enrichment while minimizing the tendency to saturation clip. Of course, I am always a huge fan of moving over to layer based, nondestructive processing to round out development. It allows you take your images further. You've inspired me to re-shoot the Wizard now that I have the SCT in the observatory and can get some serious FL and aperture on it.
Lol, love the intro bro! LMFAO. Foraxx blend will not work well with Narrowband normalization because the way Foraxx math creates an unnatural blend. The Foraxx math is not good, I am debating doing a video on this but I don't want to upset anyone because there are a lot of problems with this math.
Gotta do a video now after that claim! I see a lot of people using and referencing Foraxx, so if it is not valid, it's probably worth an explanation. Cheers!
Hello, love your videos, you do a lot that I don’t see from other people. So question…how would I adapt this process to OSC? I use dual narrowband filters.
@34:00 - no, I’m not buying a subscription to photoshop. Not now. Not ever. If nothing else, I’ve already paid enough for PixInsight plus all the *Xterminator plugins. Can you do similar processing in PI?
@8:01 - the problem here is that you dragged the container underneath your PIP video that you overlaid on the desktop recording. So, now we can’t see anything about what you’re doing with this container. Please try again, this time putting your PIP video window somewhere else on the screen where it doesn’t block anything that you’re trying to show us.
Always great to watch your tutorial. I learned a lot and edited my version of wizard nebula by following along.
@vrajeshpatel5026 hey thanks for letting me know!!
Great to see you back on UA-cam! Enjoy your tutorials and your infectious humour.
Thanks so much!!
The boring stuff is what us starting astrophotographers also appreciate!

Ah! Makes sense....honestly I use that tool more for the nb star color. How's the colorized script coming!?

Thanks! Which part of the process specifically?
Channel combination. I currently shoot with 2 filters. Ha/Oiii and Sii/Oiii. Then I split each one into separate R,G and B
I'm watching this video while eating a tiramisu...but you don't care lol
If it's like chocolate chip cookies I care....I swear!
@@enteringintospace4685 It's a great video mate, thank you for putting it together and sharing it with us
So you crawled out from under your rock? Welcome back to the world
It was tough....I like my rock😉 Thanks!

I kind a sorta care.
Well, that moderately excites me
As always - a fun and informative tutorial. Please don’t disappear again 🫥 😅
