12/28/2024 Learning PixInsight

I may be the last astrophotographer to try PixInsight, but have decided to try it. I’ve picked several recent images and reprocessed them in PI, usually starting with the 32 bit original from DeepSkyStacker but once or twice restacking the original files in PI as well. I’ve got a lot to learn. While I think each of these new images are better than their predecessor, I realize that is subjective and not all will agree.

In each case below, the old workflow is on the left and new on the right. By necessity, the thumbnails on the right are smaller but click on them for a full sized image.

SH2-240, the Spaghetti Nebula

North America and Pelican Nebulae

Flame and Horsehead Nebulae

M45, the Pleiades Star Cluster. I apparently never processed this with the old workflow.

Heart and Soul Nebulae
