My NINA Pre & Post Data Workflow Using Siril for Stacking and Stretching. Photoshop for Sweetening.

For today's video. I'll take the data captured of the Bubble Nebula using the C14 at f/11.4, the DS24cTEC, and NINA as the control software. I have 60 bias, flats, and dark calibration frames that will be used with 77 lights, to create a final image. Siril is used to stack and stretch with Photoshop to do some sweetening of the final image.
This is a revised image processing workflow that I have been working on for most of this past summer with data collected with NINA. My goal is to capture from an hour to an hour and a half worth of lights. The DS24 is in High Gain mode with an Offset of 30. I used a Gain of 100 with 60-second exposures.
On the day I captured this data. I had clouds come in and this shorted my data collection to 77 minutes. Some of this data has the start of the clouds in them. Using a script I revised in Siril. I widdle that 77 frames down to 58 good frames for the final stacking. This result fit file is then loaded into Siril as a linear file for stretching. When I'm happy with the results, I'll save the stretched file as a tiff for some Photoshop work.
Hope you enjoy the video. It will show you what is needed if you're going to try NINA. NINA workflow is very much different than the workflow I would use for Mallincamsky. As always, if you have any questions... You know where I live! ;-)

Your Welcome Russell! Hope you got a few tibbits to help you with your images...

I like your pace here Jeff...much more measured than the Adalin tutorial.

I'll ry to match this...

yes I remember banging my head over Siril's fussiness with the spelling.

My version is rc2

I did this about 2 to 3 weeks before the RC2 released.
