Hi,
I wasn't sure if start a new topic or post in the Vicent Thread in the tutorial section.

I am dealing with an issue at present, that is biggest star are saturated and lack of color saturation after my processing.
Color is ok in the outer part of the star but they are pure white inside
I have tried Vicent tutorial but in my case the Masked strech image  and the HDRWT image are almost equal (?): the resulting mask is almost black and therefore I can't go trhough the rest of the process.
The stars were protected during deconvolution
my process flow:
-rgb + ha, following Vicent blending technique, background and color calibration, DBE, deconvolution, Histogram trasform, HDRWT

Any help will be highly appreciated!
Many thanks,
Andrea
