I am processing the following data of M45:
200 x 120 second subs
30 x 120 second Darks
30 x Bias
30 x Flats
I have completed WBPP (PSF Signal Weight, Local Normalization), DBE and SPCC.
Next I run BlurXTerminator. The rings and halos around the brightest stars start to be come more noticeable. As I progress through processing, it gets worse and worse.
When I do StarXTerminator, it leaves several of the Halos behind (Interestingly, changing the AI version to "Lite" actually does a better job in this regard)
Things go from bad to worse as I progress.
I have provided a few screenshots of what I am talking about.
Is there any general advice for dealing with the bright star halos earlier in the process? I feel like the data is better than the result I got.
