Did you get the comet from a few years back? That had a beautiful green core with a blue ion tail.

This one didn't give off as much colour it seems.

I think there might be a Pixinsight trial. There's so much to learn that a trial doesn't give you the time to really get into things. I used the LE version at one point I think too.
No..... I had only just got my first telescope when Neowise was here.

I used the Pixinsight trial, absolutely adored it! I was actually processing the comet image in it, when the bloody trial ran out!!!

Need someone to buy my fisheye so I can get it!! It's 260 quid....

I'm really intrigued... How did you add the colour to this image?
The software I use to stack the images - Siril, someone has written a script that does it for you

Is it actually that lovely green colour? (I haven't seen it at all).

Here it is..... C2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS....

Here are two versions using two different Processes. This is also the first time I have imaged a comet with my telescope with all big kit, as well as processing one. Shortly I hope to get some better software called Pixinsight. I had a demp version of it, but not got the dosh to buy it at present. When I do I will re-process all images!

Shot with the same kit as the last two astro images.

1. Shot in my back garden - Processed in Siril

2. Shot at Parsley Hay - Processed in Deep Sky Stacker

This is NGC7000, also known as the Norht American Nebula. I shot this after I had shot the Comet (images to come).

It was shot in my back garden.

This was shot with the same kit as what I shot the Orion Nebula with,

Stacked & stretched in Siril, then PP'd in PS and Topaz AI DeNoise.

There are two version. One is the RGB one and the other has been processed with a Hubble palette.

RGB

This is Messier 42, better known as the Orion Nebula. This was shot using a Dual Narrow Band filter. This filter is designed to only let light spectrums of Hydrogen Alpha & Oxygen III at 7nm thru.

This was taken at silly AM on Wednesday morning, at Parsley Hay on the High Peak Trail.

Usual kit used but it was shot using a 70mm f6 420mm ED Refractor Telescope, with x0.8 Field Flattener/Reducer this made it 336mm at f4.8.

Stacked & stretched in Siril, then PP'd in PS and Topaz AI DeNoise.

In a few months when there is clear weather, and a new moon. I'll reshoot this in RGB
