2022 09 05 Long Filament - Thx a lot to Mark
Today with not optimal sky conditions due to cirrus clouds and aircraft trails (... ...) I implemented Mark's suggestions regarding:
1) do not use Autostakkert's "Sharpened" function:
2) alternatively use ImPPG.
I enclose the result with a shot of the large filament associated with NOAA 13092 composed of a mosaic of three images.
I only used the basic parameters of ImPPG without using the "Adaptive" function. These are the parameters used;
Lucy - Richard: Sigma = 1.5, Iteration = 50
Unsharp Masking: Sigma = 1.3, Amount = 4.0
I am quite happy with this result as it is a simple first test of a function I did not know about.
I leave it to you to comment on the result and propose any improvements. Thanks again to Mark for the great suggestion
Thank you

Great shot Carlo! Only suggestion might be to raise the shadows up just a bit to bring out a little more in the filament, but that could simply be the difference between our monitors.

I thanks Rigel123, Mark, Maurits and Montana for the suggestion.
Today i take new image for NOA 13092, 13093 with camera Player One Apollo M Max.
I try to use lower contrast as suggested; the result seems better.
Thx for suggestion
Carlo

Excellent results Carlo!
The second version where you've pulled back the contrast slightly is better to my eyes!
Best regards,
Arne

Re: 2022 09 05 Long Filament - Thx a lot to Mark
These images are absolutely stunning!
I'd want a medal from NASA if I produced any one of these.
Can you remember your ImPPG settings for the latest set with the lower contrast?

Thx for your kind word
I use the same parameter for both seta; i work only with diagram in ImPPG for lower contrast.
