The LRGB "stealing" was just a tutorial to show how LRGB works :) . In the image the blu channel is very weak, I think that it can be boosted during the trichromy since your image is still noise free. 25 minutes for R, G and B may not be optimal as S/N ratio, this is why I suggested to post the sepa...

Einari,
Correction...I meant to say these RGB subs are all 2x2 binning.
thx

Hi there, Yes only RGB for this frame. Using an 8" Edge w/.7 reducer. I have a very good camera, Atik One 9.0. Also, these subs were 1x1 binning. I am beginning to believe that really good color must come from more than 7 or eight RGB's, even if those are binned. I have achieved fairly good collecti...

Crescent nebula needs quite long exposure.
Was this 7 x 210s R, 7 x 210s G, 7 x 210 B ?
What scope & camera ?

Very well sir: Here is one recent effort with the Crescent Nebula. It's about 7 subs ea. @ 210 sec. RGB only if I recall correctly. I am enjoying the challenges very much, but feel like doing a copy of an internet picture would be cheating..I look forward to getting better at color development... AA...

Hello, post or make public your master R, G and B image (even in jpeg format).

Soooooo, should I give up trying to achieve good color in RGB with AA? I am struggling a little, but attributed it to my novice abilities?
thx
Charles

Thank you for your information. Okay, I've got it now,
John

Hello, I consider LRGB combine only as a last easy step of another complex procedure. Once you get a good L master image and a good (as color balance) RGB image, the final combine is immediate. Usually the hard part is to get a RGB image with proper colors despite its noise. To test only the LRGB co...

No one? Nothing?

I'm relatively new to LRGB image processing, and have been using AA6 for a couple weeks, so far only for image processing, and like it so far. I've watched the U-Tube videos and looked through the program tutorials for an idea of how things work. But, the workflow documentation is a bit on the thin ...

Giacomo,
Of course. Thanks. I "over-thought" the situation.
