Here’s another version of my Carina Nebula image using the SHO data set and processing a Visual Spectrum Synthetic LRGB image.
Processing in Startools using Compose Module …..,
SHO data set to Visual Spectrum Synthetic LRGB
Open Compose
Set Luminance Color to L + Synthetic L from RGB, Mono
Create a Luminance channel by loading Sii into R , Ha into G and Oiii into B
Press Keep then Linear then Save into your nominated location and save as a tiff file ( eg: SHO Luminance.tiff )
Open Compose
Set Luminance Color to L + Synthetic L from RGB, Mono
Create a Red channel ( Sii + Ha ) by loading Sii into R, load Ha into G
Press Keep then Linear then Save into your nominated location and save as tiff file ( eg: Red Sii +Ha.tiff )
Open Compose
Set Luminance Color to L, RGB
Load saved SHO Luminance file into Luminance channel
Load saved Red Sii + Ha file into Red channel
Load existing Oiii file into Green channel
Load existing Oiii into Blue channel
Press Keep then Linear
Open AutoDev or Film Dev and process as normal
When you hit the Colour module select the following -
Style - Artistic Not Detail Aware
LRGB Method Emulation - RGB Ratio CieLab Luminance Retention
Adjust saturation and colour bias to taste.
It’s nice feature to have in processing an alternative synthetic broadband option.
