Processing with DeepSkyStacker and Photoshop. Example files for this video and other resources on my website here: www.nebulaphotos.com/resource...

Using the basics and creating what he can with it is great for us all. I use gimp not Photoshop but it's similar. Still hard to master though. But with guys like this we will master it and get our own fab nebula, milky way pictures. Great viewing

Truly, thank you for this video. I'm just starting out in astrophotography and there are a lot of things I've been struggling to understand at the finer levels. Not to mention that I don't have my star tracking mount yet. By coincidence I was outside with my tripod and camera set up last night, wanting to take some test photos but I couldn't quite figure out how to point my camera accurately enough to bother. Its not that I didn't think about the method that you used in the video, but rather I just didn't think that would really work. Well, you did it and went slow enough for people like me to follow along. So, now I know I could have taken pictures last night after all. Definitely appreciate the step by step process you spent so much time walking us through in this video. But I also appreciate the depth of this video. You imparted a lot of knowledge. Most especially in post-processing, which I have even less experience with. Can tell I have more to learn than I thought I did. A+ 10/10 for this video! Thank you so much, again!

Hi Nico! downloaded the .tif and followed your instructions, its so much better that way, mine was not identical than your, not that much pop and fainter colors, but it was a great leaning experience for me, specially the starnet, dont understand it much yet but I guess is to conserve star colors and shapes.

Yep, you got it, It's a method for keeping the stars small and colorful while boosting the deep sky objects. If we just boosted the deep sky objects to the same level with the stars in the photo they would become bloated and white.

@@NebulaPhotos I gave it a shot with my nifty fifty and 1200D and got some great results. Two issues I had though (settings ISO 400, f/2.0, 15" exposures on the Star Adventurer Pro). 1) I got that seagull effect that you mentioned. Most people won't be able to tell but I can pickup on those details. Do I need to increase my f stop? Then I may need to increase to ISO 800. 2) The contrast on the bottom left and right corners seems high (almost like there was stray light). I have AstroFlat for Photoshop which I will need to try but if you get that on your shots how do remove it? 3) I am thinking of buying a light pollution filter which I think will really improve the colour. Have you experimented with them? Thanks!

@@04Stefan07 1) yes, stopping down the lens more will typically make star shape better. With a star tracker where you can expose longer, I'd probably try f/4 and longer exposures 2) Hard to say without seeing it. Registration artifact from stacking? With bright/dark corners that aren't corrected by the flat, I usually just crop them away 3) Yes, they will change colour (I wouldn't say they improve it) and the biggest benefit is increased contrast for red nebulae since they chop away mostly green/blue and leave the red alone. For emission nebulae, I think they are useful. My favorite is a Neodymium filter.

Thanks for your videos, I've watched more than one and they are helping me a lot since I'm really a rookie in astrophotography. One thing I noticed when using Deepspacestacker is that processing time depends a lot on hard drive speed. Changing the location of all files, including the temp directory, from a good internal mechanical disk to an internal sata ssd (PC) reduced the processing time by a factor 3 at least. I don't know if you already mentioned that in your videos but it could be a good suggestion for other users. And please keep doing your videos 😉

But with M31 may I say 😂😂 it was a success by the looks of things just about to stack the data

Just watched your 2 vids, no tracker no telescope no problem, I just want to say a great big thank you for a concise explanation of the different methods and processes required to produce some great images I never would imagine from such a small amount of equipment required, your methods were fairly straight forward to understand, although the lagoon nebula seemed a bit too complicated for me, but I'm just starting out so baby steps for now, ypu gave a well presented step by step thorough methodology of the entire process, what equipment you need and explained in easy stages how to achieve the great images I hope to emulate, thank you I can't wait to try ot out, very inspiring👍 By the way I thought you sound like Max headroom, you maybe too young to know who he is, look it up 😂
