Hi there
Matbe some of the kind patrons here, will end my suffering, and tell me what i am doing wrong, i have tried stacking in the past, but the results always look terrible, am i doing something wrong?
Image 1, is an 8 min shot of the Lagon Nebula
Image 2, is three of these shots stacked.
I know lots of smaller exposures and probably better than a few larger ones, but i am just trying to learn the broad strokes of my craft, before losing any more heart.
Apologies for the way i am typing, i have been watching Deadwood again
Anyway, 3 stacked images and it looks awful. Where are the best tutorials? how is anyone meant to get a nice picture out of this?
PS. The over saturation of blue is the LPR, i am starting to think only totally dark skies will suffice. But even without the LPR, i still get a background of very light grey
Can anyone offer any help for the best settings when stacking, and any hints or tips for getting the best out of something that to me, looks unworkable?
thanks..
