Description

Dear Colleagues,

one of the most difficult areas for us astrophotographers: constellastion Cassiopeia ... not easy to image due to all the complex objects! 
Andy  my personal record more than 7 h exposure time !!! The session took place in the garden of my parents (2023-09-15,16).

Image data:
444 x  [60s, F2.0-F2.8, ISO3200, Z6, Samyang 135mm F2.0].

PI Processing:
I = WBPP, II-ESD, BXT, GXPAI, IS, BXT, SPCC, NXT, HT.
I2 = I, M (CT), IM (LHE, ACDNR).

SXT (I2):
n = SXT (I2) - N, IM (LHE), NXT, SCNR (0.7 x G) x 2.
s = SXT (I2) -S, CMS, SCNR (G x 0.7) x 2, HT.   

PixelMath:
PM (1.3 x n+s), DC, BN, CC, LHE, BN, CC, HT.

CS and be fascinated,
Johannes ;-)
