I have finally started to get the hang of the colour balance in atra image when you combine the three colours.
If you need to make it more red, then drop the value for red from 1.0 to ray .9, muck around with increments of .1 for less of a colour or decrements of .1 for more of a colour
This is a collage of your #6 in an attempt to get better colour.
Remember Astra image does a histo stretch I believe so it brightens straight away (you may want to test the histo stretch at stacking stage in registax).
Top row from left to right is your original split into R,G,B
Second row is the R,G,B recombined, no deconvolution, but a histostretch would have occurred automatically. So a histo stretch at stacking time in registax may help straight away???
Third row is a ME deconvolution (2x1.3) with colour adjustments
Fourth row is a LR deconvolution(2x1.3) with colour adjustments
The ME is a bit overdone for mine so maybe 2 x 1.1???
I was very happy with the clarity of your blue channel which is most sensitive to bad focus and seeing. It is very clear and also shows good detail. I would have to say it is not the telescope, but a few finishing touches to the colour balance. Astra image seems to work for me, but I believe Bird may use gimp and others may use photoshop???
Great attention to detail with collimation,toucam imaging & registax work!!! This is evident with the detail!!!
Final touchups for the refractor and then onto Big Blue!!!!
Well done "planet master" ASI
