Hi

A little one for the collection , on mosaic creation   [urlhttp://www.harrysastroshed.com/Mosaic.html][/url]

Not complicated but someone asked me to do it

thanks again Harry,

a question - in the Ha vid at 3.40 you have 'too many stars and too much continium' any pointers on how this decision is made.

Hi

There is a tech way of working this out which Vicent sent me , which I think is beyond the capabilities of most amateurs ( well me any way )  so he created the by eye method , which as shown in the vid is about reducing the size of your red Bandwidth until the background Galaxy's and a lot of the fainter stars disappear which in the process also removes a lot of the continuum

So in the true harry way its trial and error , trying not to over do it and removing the wanted Data

My very first post and it is to thank you Harry, because if not for your tutorials I would not have bought Pixinsight. Indeed i was going to try the Trial version, but after watching your tutorials I was convinced this software was for me.

As I am new I am not aware of the rules here fully yet, something i will read up on in due time. But I would like to post the link here to another local forum where I have posted my first run at using PI.

One question, I understand that one learns by trial and error, but how did you learn to sequence you actions in a certain workflow. Is it just something you already knew from using other software?

Also is there some repository here or on the general internet of data you can get to test your processing skills?

My sincere Thanks and Regards
Fahim

Hi

Always happy that my little vids were of help  and welcome to Pixinsight

As for work flow , don't follow other software as you have found out PI is different  as a start follow the order of my newbie vids and watch one of my demos for a idea 

There is not any data here to play with , but I am sure there is some out there jim misti etc

Keep us all informed of your progress

Jim Misti's location for his great collection of raw data at http://www.mistisoftware.com/astronomy/index_fits.htm is temporarily down, but I got an email from him saying that he is working to rectify the situation and it may be a month or two before the lights go on again. The situation has to do with a change of web hosting services.

Harry,
Thankyou very much for all your great tutorials on PI.

Although there is a huge amount of tutorial information on the PI website, your video tuts have been instrumental in getting me up to a level with PI where I can begin to get some pleasing results from my images.

I have just looked at you latest tutorial on building Mosaics and just like your other tutorials, this will be a great help in my learning process. So again, I thankyou.

At the risk of being a bit cheeky  it would be really great if you were ever inclined to make a tutorial on the process you use to create your Dark and Flat calibration frames as this is an area where I continually struggle.

I have used the information available on the web site and although helpful in getting me started, some additional guidance in the form of a tutorial along similar lines to your other video tuts would be a huge help.

Again, thanks for all your great work.

Cheers,
Luke
