Hi Bert. I actually do most of my processing with the FITs files and find a certain improveent by doing so. The one thing I usually don't do is a DDP stretch in IP and leave the curve and linear stretch until I take the image into PS. I have not had any real success with the IP DDP.
I have been experimenting quite a lot with difereing combination methods and colour balance methods but have at this stage yet to satisfy myself that the outcome is worth the changes to my normal work profile.
This image is not the best for me to play with as the RGB data has horrific gradients due to the quite large moon and its proximity to CA.
If I can get a clear night without a moon I may be able to capture some good data that gives me some thing to truely experiment with.
Thanks for the comments and advice.
