Separate R,G,B reprocess JUPITER & GANYMEDE 13 April

[Robert_T]

Hi All, did a separate R,G,B colour process on one of my better avis from the morning of the 13th. Brings out some finer detail I think so worth it is this case.

This one's a keeper I reckon.

cheers,

Hi Robert

That is a most beautiful image. The detail on Ganymede is outstanding. Your colours seem so much more saturated than my efforts, which always seem to look a little anemic compared to other IIS posters too.

Maybe I need an Iron filter as well as the UV/IR blocker?

Cheers

Dennis

PS - To split RGB would simply do my head in so I'm not going there....ever....period!

Wow Robert. Nice image! Yes, I've noticed Rob, you have far more saturated colours than most here posting Jupiter shots. Lovely, lovely colours :)

I'm with you Dennis on the RGB splitting.

Thanks Guys, wierd though. I'm always trying to get my colours more like Dennis, Mike and DP's but can't seem to manage it?? I usually boost saturation a little in Pixel Studio 2.0 - for some reason it does a much better job on saturation than any of the other half dozen programs I've used and are using. Frustrating how I have around 5 post-processing programs and each has one thing it does better than the rest so it becomes a relay run!

cheers,

I love the colour saturated look, so I've been trying to emulate yours, lol.

Yes, it has been worth the work.

Here are the yard sticks. now that the 4x powermate is out, I am putting together a compilation of same scale ie reduce the ones back to rumples 3x with the c9.25 as a minimum size. I also have to work out Mikes best and compare the image scale. Asi also with the extension tube is also up there in magnification.

Not hard to see what two stand out for fineness of detail.

Anyway something to aim for!

I did an auto colour on yours in photoshop.

You wrote Dennis, DP.. i think you meant Robert.

Nice result Robert.. the colours are very saturated.. i'm not sure why.

[Dennis]

Roger that Mike - that wonderful x4 Powermate image is Robert's.

Good pick up.

Cheers

thanks DP, it's nice to have something to aim for... though with the quality of some of those (esp Chris Go's) I'm having to squint while aiming :rofl:

also tried a simple re-process using Dennis's approach of heavy wavelets 1 and 2 only. It does produce a sharper result approaching that of the separate R,G,B process but without all the fuss and bother.

attached here is original straight registax image and then the same at right but with Wavelet 1 set to 25 and 2 set to 15.
