Fun with the California nebula in HaRGBL&OIII

Ha was added to the Red channel then combined to produce an RGB image. Then Ha + OIII was used a luminance layer and OIII colour blue was layered though a masking process in Ps to create separation.

March 2020 just before lockdown we had a brief but brilliant weekend escape to Narooma and surrounds.
I thought I'd revisit a few that I fell in love with from there with current software and techniques...
At its East Midlands base in 1977. This late-production Viscount was built in 1961 and delivered to Ghana Airways. It survives in Zimbabwe, though probably in poor condition. www.vickersviscount.net/Index/VickersViscount446History.aspx
An ABC Argosy and a DC-3 can be seen in the background.
Scan of a Kodachrome slide from my collection. SilverFast 9 software was used to tidy up scratches and other marks on the original.

Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
Apologies for the quality of the audio on this - I've had to bodge this together. I made a slideshow using online software but I couldn't save it in a usable format, so instead I had to play it on the PC screen while filming it on my iphone.
It is somewhat self-indulgent, so apologies for that also, lol.
A collection of pictures from my first emergence, right through up to the end of July this year. Loads of different looks, outfits, places and people. Personally, I can't watch this without being reduced to joyful tears!
The music, 'This Is Me', from The Greatest Showman, is the perfect track and is somewhat of a trans anthem. Rightly so. As the lyrics go:
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies
This is me!

Caution: (the following description contains NO sarcasm. read at your own risk.)
Venice is my favorite place to go on a photo walk. No matter where you go, there is always something unique and beautiful to see. Being such a small & compacted place makes it ideal for a day trip too. However, if you plan on doing some photography, make sure to stay a little longer and observe the city during different times of day. You’ll be surprised how much the lighting conditions will change, sometimes hour by hour.
Here you see the light of the late afternoon. A sun, hung low in the sky, not quite casting golden tones, but still casting long sharp shadows and highlights. It’s a great time of day to capture vivid colors, contrast, & dramatic lighting.
Check out some other HDR Photos from Venice.

Affinity by Canva: First Impressions
Credit: Giuseppe Donatiello
I spent half an hour learning/evaluating Affinity by Canva.
It's not an intuitive software, especially for those who aren't very experienced with editing, but it quickly makes you realize it's not one of those toy apps. Affinity is powerful, however, and includes a wealth of editing and graphics tools on par with more well-known and very expensive software.
It's not a product for astrophotography, so its value can be best demonstrated by its performance on non-ordinary images.
I limited myself to the Pixel section, i.e., photo editing, and after some testing, I ventured into processing a raw TIFF image of M42 (box 1), a subject rich in nuances, tones, and a myriad of details.
Even with the basic settings (box 2), the result is very satisfying. However, it's by exploring the advanced tools that I discover extremely useful applications for astrophotography, such as generating false-color images (box 3) and applying powerful and incredibly simple deconvolutional algorithms.
The use of deep learning in many tools is all too evident, and it's important/recommended not to get too carried away. The experienced user will know how much to use and, above all, when to stop to avoid entering the minefield of overprocessing, which is unfortunately widespread, where artifacts are considered objective details.
For software that has become free, can you expect more?
M42 taken with 127EDmm f/9
Using Topaz Noise Adjust 6 for the first time.
This shot of a Beach Staggerwing Replica was very noise on the underside of the aircraft. Not a very good capture but a great candidate for the test.
The image above is a 2000 X 1250 pixel scan from an original Kodachrome™ slide. Anything that is not from an original Kodachrome™ is noted as such, including later digital images and a limited number of scanned prints. The vast majority of Kodachrome™ shots were scanned during the period 2007-2014. As of 2022, there remains thousands of scanned, and unscanned images yet to go.
Early uploads were done in a 1024 X 683 pixel size. Since then, technology and software has improved, so I am beginning to re-upload in the much larger 2000 X 1250 pixel size, with the eventual goal of having only that format.
The images in the various galleries come mostly from my slide collection, gathered over the past 40+ years. They are a combination of my own photographs and others acquired over those years through trading, purchasing, and attending conventions.
This photostream was created in 2017 for the sole purpose of holding my slide collection as an archive, and has had over 10 million image views (to 2022)

Giving Nik Software HDR efex Pro 2 a test run. I'm not big into HDR, but sometimes it's just kinda necessary (in small amounts). Now that I've got an awesome tripod of awesomeness, it's time I learned to embrace it.
Also thinking it might be time to leave my beloved CNX2. I love it. I wish they would upgrade it and fix all the problems with it and maybe give us a few more features, but it's been YEARS since NX2 was released, there's been no news from nik software of any intention of upgrading it, and their newest versions of the plug-ins aren't even compatible with NX..... sigh....
Testing CS6 with the nik software plug-ins now to see if I can make it close enough to NX2 to convince myself to make the switch.
