How I edit photos I take of space (Andromeda Processing Workflow)
In this video I’m going to demonstrate how I take the pictures from my camera and telescope and turn them into this. I’ll be using two pieces of software, PixInsight and Photshop, along with some third-party plugins and tools. I’m not going to go super in-depth on all the specifics of how to do this yourself; this is more of a high-level overview of what a workflow might look like for anyone just getting into image-processing. Of course, if you’ve also just stumbled upon this video and want to see how I edited this photo, then please, stick around.
