I think it's brilliant.

Thanks John!

This is what I did:

For each colour I used about 1000 frames out 3000 and allowed Autostakkert to do its standard deconvolution with 25% raw blend.

For stage 2 I used Astra Image to do a very small amount of Maximum Entropy deconvolution on each stack. Radius 1 for R, 1,1 for G and 1.2 for B. All with 5 passes and exponential psf.

Stage 3: Registered, RGB combined and white balanced in IRIS. Increased colour saturation just a little and applied the crisp filter in moderation.

Stage 4: Put it through Noiseware Community Edition using the Landscape setting.
