Description

Two pictures were captured before and after supernova (green arrow on B panel) appearance[b]. [/b]Pre-supernova image was captured by Dwain Bostick with Esprit 100ED on Texas Star Party (TSP) May 14-24, 2022. Integration is only 2h. Post-supernova image capture at Bortle 7 is described here; started on 17 May (pre-supernova time) and finished on 1 June. 

Processing:
RGB are combined.
Cropping for RGB and Lum
Color Colib for RGB
Blur and Noise XT for RGB and Lum
Manual stretching (with HT) RGB and Lum
LRGB 
Noise XT again
Stretching again
Star XT. These stars have been saved for adding at the end. 
Simple Lum mask 
Local Histogram Equalization: Kernel radius of 40, 80 and then 220
Multiscale-median transform for sharpness. 
Curves: saturation and brightness are manipulated.
Mask off.
Saturated stars are added.
Done
