From Raw to Finished: A Siril v1.2.0 Tutorial for Beginner Astrophotographers
Ғылым және технология
Post your images here. I'd love to see them: tinyurl.com/yckbu69y
This is my updated for Siril v1.2.0 beginners, start to finish tutorial on how to stack and process your astrophotography images. I'll also show you how to remove the stars from an image for better touch ups in Photoshop, and how to recombine them into a final image. Towards the end you'll also learn how to remove noise from the the photos using Topaz DeNoise.
Today I'll be working on the Crescent Nebula NGC6888 that was shot with my Celestron 8" EdgeHD using the Player One Poseidon-C dedicated astrophotography camera, through the Optolong L-Enhance filter.

I'm using the Dwarf 2 and trying to follow this tutorial - Dwarf 2 only produces Fits - lights images? how would I run this script if I have no files in the darks/flats/biases folders? (i guess Dwarf does produce Dark Frames but the dark frames are used by telescope and produces the Fits without hot pixels)

Not having much success. My folders were empty when I created them, and it seems to be complaining about them and telling me to copy the pictures into each one? You didn't mention that, that I heard. Should I have copied pictures there? If not, where? Where do the fits files go? I have .NEF files from my Nikon; was I supposed to do something before selecting the process directory (such as cropping them)?
This was an absolute life-saver for a total newbie (me). 3 hours of capture of the Triangulum....completely lost myself in processing...and following this gave me a result to share. THANK YOU!!!

Hi. For my own benefit I took notes on the crucial steps. Please delete or modify as appropriate. Siril directions (without photoshop after color saturation) 1) Stack 2) Open stacked result file 3) Open to histogram view & use the mouse to select the cropped area and right click and choose crop (not mentioned: you can use Image processing-->geometry -->rotate&crop to free rotate). 4) Go to autostretch and use the background extractor option in autostretched mode. Use the dithering setting just to be sure. 5) Color correct: color calibration, photometric: find the DSO and select ok (make sure focal length and pixel size is correct) 6) Remove green noise, apply 7) Remove stars: star processing, starnet removal (select pre-stretch linear image, keep view in autostrech) and execute 8) Go to linear mode once stars are gone 9) Asinh transformation stretch until you start to see the details (maybe 50%, to make sure you are not clipping the blacks later) 10) Histogram transformation use and make sure not clipping the darks/shadows more than 0.1%. Start by moving the midtones to the left really far until you are okay with how the background looks. Then move the darks to the right until before you are clipping data. (not mentioned: My understanding is that steps 9 & 10 can be repeated a few times to bring out more data; I’ve done it successfully but not sure if would be the same to just do a more aggressive initial stretch). 11) Increase color saturation. Use global and if nebula try cyan. You can max it out and then do it again. 12) SAVE the image 32 bit FITS 13) Put stars back: star processing, star recomposition. Left side open the file you saved in step 12, right side open you removed star mask (starmask_result file) and adjust the stretch factor on the star layer until you are happy with the number of stars showing.
Siril has a steep learning curve. This tutorial allowed me to work through my first stacked image. I have a lot more to learn, but this was a great way to get started.

A great recap of most of the basic stuff you’ve covered these last few months Rich. 6 months ago I’d never used Siril but since then I’ve learned a lot. Whilst I use most of your tutorial, there are parts of it that I do differently but that is just preferred choice. I tend to recombine the star mask and the starless images in PS more out of habit. Thank you so much for what you’ve taught me. You’re a great presenter!

I see my near future is to go back over many of my old images and reprocess them using your Siril techniques. Again, many thanks for your tips. I have a question though; with photoshop you can move an image around when it fills more than a full screen using the sliders on the sides of the image. I see you moving your image around. How are you doing that? Also, can you zoom in and out without using the + and - icons at the bottom of the screen? Anyway, thanks again!

Thank you Rich, awesome tutorial. Just a suggestion and a request if it’s possible. Wouldn’t it be better to remove the stars first and then deal with the background extraction. In such case we do not have to worry whether the squares fall on top of bright stars? Any chance you can do sometime in the future a tutorial similar to this but for images taken with monochrome cameras? This will be much appreciated.

Background extraction should be done before stretching, and since the star removal process does that pre-stretch you're no longer linear. Maybe some day I'll put one together for mono, but I only have a OSC right now. Haven't stepped into that area yet

Is there a Siril script that can help me process with darks and lights but NOT with biases and flats? I looked into the scripts download but did not find any. Is it because it does not make sense mathematically? But how does DSS do it with just darks and lights? Thanks!

Thanks! I use Photoshop in post, never tried Affinity but there are some that do.
Great tutorial! I've never used Siril for processing. Do you think it's better than Photoshop?

Thanks! Photoshop is just for some final tweaks. Siril or some other tool is for everything else. Can't really compare the two though
Thank you for these Siril tutorials. I was about to give up on it because I thought it was a low level processoing SW and was thinking about forking $$ for Pixinsight. Thanks again for showing that Siril can be a powerful Astro tool. Incidentally, any chance of putting a few GIMP tutorials together so I can save on buying Photoshop. I know…I’m a cheapo.🤓

Great to hear they helped you out. I haven't used gimp on awhile but I'll keep it mind for a possible future video.
Great job!! Thanks for the tutorial.One thing about asinh, I’ve read that you should not go over 100 when stretching. Have you tried to limit it?

Thanks! With any type of stretching I generally go a little bit at a time.
Thanks again, I have to keep reffering to this video as by the time the next clear skies come along here in Wales I've forgotten how to do it all, seriously we've only had two or three clear Moonless nights in the last six months, very frustrating.

Clouds suck! 🤣 Hope you see clear skies soon!
Really great tutorial about basics function in siril😊. But I have a question: idk if I'm wrong, but it's possible that you lost the OIII signal while processing the image ?🤔

Yeah I shot this with the L-Enhance, and oiii is faint in the DSO as well, especially with an OSC. Usually I wouldn't run PCC in that case, but I wanted to show how to use it.
