Thanks James. I shoot the moon quite a bit and this will really enhance my photography. I just tried it tonight with 18 photos and the results were amazing.

WOW, I've wondered how some people get the colour into their moon shots, now I know. Thank you so much James!

Really nice, James! I wasn't too keen on the first one, but this one is really great! Thank you for posting this.

Amazing. I wondered how folks got that sharp detail of the moon. Now to give it a spin to improve my Moon shots.

Thanks James sir Plz make video on milky way editing( star minimization, noise reduction , stacking and foreground blending)

Is the movement of the moon due to the handheld shooting multiple shots in a blast? Removing the fringe was excellent in both vids, btw. However, creating the color bleed masks for two layers at the same time was awesome! I cannot remember seeing that before. Could this be done for macro, or is the depth of field too narrow?

Did you use a mirror lens for the photos?

This is an excellent video, James! At the 5:32 mark, you mention clicking on the cog icon and adjusting the “Underlying Composition Ranges” graph. I use Affinity Photo 2 for iPad and do not see the cog icon or underlying composition ranges. If I click on the Clarity layer and then the 3 dots to go to the layer options, there are “Source” and a “Dest” graphs. Is the “Dest” graph the equivalent of the Underlying Composition Ranges graph in the cog menu in the desktop version?

@JamesRitson 9 ай бұрын

Hi, yes, Dest is the graph you want 👍

James my camera shoots and saves images as Fit files. Do i just batch process these as Tiffs or can i work always in Fits but follow your workflow?

@paulcreedy5253 2 ай бұрын

Can I ask why you stacked processed TIF files instead of the original RAW files, and in what way did you process them?

@JamesRitson 2 ай бұрын

Hi Paul, I pre-processed the TIFFs for better optical corrections and noise reduction. When you use RAW files in merge operations like Live Stack it uses a basic raw processing pipeline rather than the more advanced one in the Develop Persona, so you have no fine control over tones or corrections. It's just about maximising quality-hope that helps!

@paulcreedy5253 2 ай бұрын

@@JamesRitson Thanks. Do you have a video on doing that and applying the settings to 40 images without having to do each separately?

@RishiRajKoul 9 ай бұрын

Why Tiff? Why not raw?

@JamesRitson 9 ай бұрын

TIFF lets you pre-process the files: stacking RAWs directly in File>New Stack only applies a basic development for speed, whereas if you process via File>New Batch Job you get better demosaicing, noise reduction, lens corrections & more. Hope that helps!

It is fine... but can you assure me that this manual edition is better than a 1 second edition with AI? I use to spend a lot of time in edition... but «The Times They Are a-Changin'» ;-) ;-( difficult to mantain a learning curve if you can make it without effort
