Hey Anthony.
I've donwloaded Astra Image and Gimp to try this split/deconvolution/recombine that you do.
I tried it with a Jupiter image from the 19th January, that I re-processed in registax this morning. This one turned out better than my previous processing, thanks to creating reference frame and a bit better technique.
Here's my original (after processing):
Now, I loaded it into Astra Image, did a "split" which created the RED/BLUE/GREEN images, and then on each image I did a "Lucy Richardson Deconvolution".
I then did a "Recombine", choosing the red/green/blue, and this is the result.
Obviously, it doesn't look that great with some processing artifacts around the edge.
I used the default parameters for the LR deconv..
What am I doing wrong?
Can you explain the exact steps (and parameters) you use when processing a planetary image, such as you did to my recent jupiter on CN the other day?
Thanks heaps.
