Hi everyone,

Having had some good results playing with GraXpert's AI noise reduction, I was keen to see just how far I could push some of my data.

I've attached an updated version of my previous Thor's Helmet (NGC2359), the data of which was acquired from a Brisbane backyard back in March of 2013 using an 8" RC and a QHY8L camera. Exposure times were 12 x 10 minute subs. Processing was with a combination of GraXpert-Siril-Startools-Siril with some minor cosmetics using Snapseed and Gimp.

I'm quite happy with just how much information was lurking in my data.

Cheers,
Mario

2013 was sooooo looooong ago, the imaging World has changed a lttle in 10 years, I guess....not quite as much as when I left the astrophotography game though, for a little over that length of time back in 1988 - 2002, when coming back to it, the changes were astronomical, including a complete change in medium, chemicals/analogue to electronic/digital, star charts and star hopping, to planetarium software and goto!...it was a whirlwind reintroduction.... :scared::eyepop:...but hey, here we are today :D

Enjoy the re-immersion :thumbsup:
