Centaurus A Again.

This image has some extra data and a different processing technique.
To me it looks better than my previous Cent A.
Comments welcome (still on L plates).

Seems a tad sharper but the out of round star shapes are a little more obvious now..?

Seems to me there is possibly more that can be done to enhance the image and highlight the detail

Have you tried a layer mask

Cheers Trevor

Yeh the stars are crap now
I in my infinite wisdom had to load a new beta firmware for testing on the Gemini 2 didn't i ??
At 1Am i set everything up to get the Luminance for this picture and let it rip
and went to bed.
Tonight i am staying with the thing and check every capture
Gotta love this hobby

I never use layer masks Trevor (still learning the ropes of processing)

Cheers Martin.

Certainly a tad sharper and the colouring is pretty good Martin. just ditcht he stars which are out of round and keep gathering good subs. Persistence will pay off here.

Thank you Paul, it is getting better and now i am doing longer subs too.
