Thanks for another excellent and very informative video. I always learn from your detailed explanations of processing in PI and PS. A thought on the Image Solving issue you had: I've used the Seti Astro PI script "Blind Solver" and it usually works when I've had otherwise unexplainable issues plate solving.
That’s a great video Craig. I don’t really use photoshop in my processing except at the very end, and that is because I don’t know what to do. Seeing this has given me a good starting point. I have never really understood what all the blending modes do, is there a reference somewhere that you recommend that explains their function?
Great video, thanks. I don't understand why Pixinsight takes so long to plate solve, and why, at times it completely fails. My Asiair can plate solve an image with a tiny computer in about 5 seconds, and when I used to use Siril could likewise get an image solution almost instantly. Pixinsight has been notoriously bad at doing this for quite some time!
gm craig, i jumped back into this tutorial again to finish the pickering triangle. when the editing is finished, what is the best way to save the image and you know my ultimate goal is a print.
This was again a great tutorial Thanks Craig !
Thank you very much Craig for sharing your Photoshop process: very educational !
Thank you Craig for the great video. It was a good teaching point about plate solving, it was useful, not a problem.
cool stuff Craig, I'll have to give this a try when I eventually go mono

Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!
gm craig, so i am at timeline-18:20, again i don't have to image solver because i did not do dynamic crop, correct??
Correct. As long as color calibration works, then you're good to go. If color calibration fails, it's usually because you need to run image solver.

Save the masterfile as a Photoshop Large Format file .PSB. For printing, save a COPY as a .JPEG
craig, my final image has more cyan in it and less red compared to yours, how could i fix this. excellent tutorial i might add.
Increase the brightness of the Hydrogen group (which is red) and/or decrease the brightness of the Oxygen group (cyan)
craig, if my wpp was set for auto crop, why are am i doing another dynamic crop or do i skip that.
Skip the dynamic crop when using the auto crop option
