Description

My latest project from several clear nights at the beginning of October 2022 with a rather bright Moon (testament to the 3nm Antlia Narrowband filters) - The Heart Nebula (IC 1805) captured with my mono ASI294mm-Pro and processed in SHO with RGB stars added. I'm still having a slight issue with tilt which is visible in the stars on the left but I hope to resolve this with my Gerd Neumann Tilt Adjuster which I've recently added to my imaging train. However, clear nights are so precious I simply haven't had the time to make the necessary adjustments.

Title: Trial NoiseXTerminator

Description: This is a quick trial of Russell Croman's NoiseXTerminator incorporated into my original workflow, albeit late. I think this is a vast improvement over what I had before with Topaz Denoise. This is also at the full, original resolutiion.
