Thank you Kevin,Fred,Justin, and anyone else who might offer advice and
help. I have in fact been trying to find out about DSLR image processing.
I got Michael Covington's DSLR Astrophotography, and read it carefully.
I use Registax successfully for the planets. I do fairly basic image
manipulation on PS. Neatimage works quite well for me. I have done a
bit of JPEG stacking in DSS. BUT, when I read up on processing proper
I am overwhelmed by darks, lights, biases, binning, Gaussian, Bayer
Matrices, curves, gradients, median, unsharp masking, luminance, hue,
saturation, RBG, aligning, stacking, calibration, subs, wavelets, Denoise, brightness, contrast, resizing, signal to noise ratio, layers, TIFF 16 & 32,
JPEG, Cr2, raw, rar, and the list goes on. I have printed out quite a lot
of instructions for using the aforementioned software, and also used
the help section where available. My grandson who is a heavy duty
comp geek would romp through this stuff, but I find it daunting.
Thanks again; I hope I didn't bore you all to death. Now I must go and
try out your advice.
