Chicken Repro

[Benjamin]

I dare say I know what folks will prefer but I persist in learning PixInsight. The StarTools is more 'painterly' and has more contrast I guess and the PixInsight is an attempt at something more 'realistic' and subtle with the understanding that there is something perhaps in between (Rick). One PI version cropped one PI version not cropped.
Again really appreciate any comments particularly about what is liked and not-liked. While a lot is personal preference its nice to know if you've ventured down familiar processual dead alleyways!

First one looks a bit burned out in the highlights, Ben?

The first burnt out one is the old StarTools version :-) Needs a lot more data really as once the green was capped (via SCNR) in the PixInsight versions there was a bit of colour void it seemed.

A big chicken-fish well caught on a light line. Lots of detail there.

Many thanks for the comments. A very light line in shallow waters!
