That's odd colour - are they debayering correctly? Almost seem like the channels aren't aligning properly. They look 3D if you wear blue/red anaglyph glasses.

Something doesn't seem right.

Lewis you are right
I have to understand, my deep sky stacker didn't give a color picture but the frames were color. I used a method in PS CS6 to select the colors to improve the color conditions. But this method created this bad colors.

Thank
Giuseppe

Your globulars look like a chocolate freckle. mmmmmm

Keep at it Giuseppe, great results aren't too far away. Always takes a few hours under dark skies to sort out new equipment. Congrats on the purchase.

hi giuseppe,

usually DSS produces a "greyscale" style image. the colour should start coming out naturally playing with the levels and curves?

all the best,

Rusty

Thank you Jase, I hope to improve from this my first tets.

Thank you Rusty, I will try to modify levels an curves in PS, my concern is only to find the right colors and not something colored but artificial.

Thaks
Giuseppe
