And of course one of the good things about PI is that you can save your work as a project, so when you reload the next day all the stuff you did before (images, history) is still there to be further processed. No lost work.
Differences were:
-- A deconvolution on your (real) luminance
--LRGBCombination with the real luminance rather than the synthetic one (which I still used as a mask)
--Some sharpening with AtrousWaveletTransform.
--Noise reduction withTVGDenoise
--Upped the saturation a bit with CurvesTransformation
--The odd Histogram tweak here and there.


All up this has been an interesting thread. I learned a couple of new tricks from PI Guru Rick's workflow above.

Nice one, thanks Geoff! I'd never actually noticed the save project feature before. That's going to be really handy in future.

Apart from combining the colours and lum in CCDStack, it was processed entirely in PS CS5.1, using 2 actions and a little levels and curves. Nothing else except a double 50% Lum layered in luminosity to bring it out a bit.
Great work Lewis, kept the noise down well and with a really simple approach. For those using PS, do you mind sharing what actions you used (assuming these are commercially, or otherwise freely available actions).
