Title: BlurXterminator version
Description:
I decided to see what a quick re-processing with BlurXterminator would look like.
I used 0.25 sharpening on stars and 0.6 on non-stellar. I should probably have used 0.5 on non-stellar as I think I have oversharpenned.
FWIW: the process I used was:
* dynamic crop of individual S, H and O images
* ABE applied to each (I was being lazy)
* BlurXterminator applied to all 3 channels using a custom PSF size determined by using PSFImage script
* I have a custom STF that I use which is a small to medium stretch which I applied to each channel to effectively achieve the same as a linearfit, but with the stars where I want them brightness-wise
* I did an SHO combination for one image, then a Foraxx combination for another image
* I did a 50/50 combination of the SHO and the Foraxx images
* Used StarXterminator to extract stars
* Used GHS, Curves transformation and ArcSinh stretch on the starless image to get it roughly where I wanted
* Used BackgroundNeutralisation with a range mask to get rid of colour cast that I had created on the background
* I used NoiseXterminator at about 0.4 on the starless image
* Used pixelmath to add the stars back in
