Trying out the new VeraLux scripts for processing my astrophotography in Siril! Really liking these results, like this 6.5 hour stack on the Whirlpool galaxy.

Reprocessing some old data of NGC7635 Bubble Nebula, to keep my hand in processing methods using a combination of VeraLux and existing Siril scripts. #Astrophotography #astronomy #siril #astrophotos #astroimages

I haven’t spent much time on globular clusters, but I think I need to change that.
This is just 0.5hr on M13, a large globular cluster in the direction of Hercules. Reprocessed with Siril, GraXpert, Veralux Hypermetric Stretch, GIMP. #Seestar S50 🔭 🧪

Reprocessing a pretty friend: M 42, the Orion Nebula. Also pictured are M 43, De Mairan’s Nebula, and NGC 1977, the Running Man Nebula.

NGC 2903 is a lovely little barred spiral galaxy located about 30 million light years away in the direction of Leo.

M45 The Pleiades, aka "The Seven Sisters" or what I like: "Subaru", taken 01/07/2026
The open star cluster is only 444 light years from earth which makes it the nearest Messier object to earth.

I reprocessed data I captured of IC405 Flaming Star nebula, using the new suite of VeraLux scripts. Which I must say, is making post processing much easier. And in my opinion, its producing greatly improved final images, when compared to my original efforts. #Astrophotography #astronomy #astrophoto

One more of my science targets! NGC 3227 and its little elliptical companion, NGC 3226. About 75 million light years away, NGC 3227 hosts a 10 million solar mass black hole in its nucleus

Dark nebula LDN 1452. 18 hours of data. Shot in LRGB with my SW Esprit 80ED refractor, ASI2600MM Pro camera, SW Wave 150i mount. I tried out the new Veralux Hypermetric Stretch tool on this image, and it did quite well on the nebulosity. More on Astrobin: app.astrobin.com/i/f0ln5e

Trying out Riccardo Paterniti's VeraLux HyperMetric Python script in Siril. Although it isn't necessarily designed for it, it even works on #film #astrophotography scans, like this 30 minute manually guided exposure of the Bubble Nebula! #filmisnotdead

This is a quick-and-dirty version of a dark nebula image I shot over the past week. This is about 18 hours of data, processed in true color. Veralux Hypermetric Stretch kept popping up on my radar, so I tried that with this image. Space is a dusty and dirty place.

Here is the result of reprocessing 6 hours of light on M101 with the VeraLux scripts in Siril. The SN 2023ixf is visible here in one of the spiral arms in this image data from May and June 2023, captured using an 8" LX200 Classic and SBIG ST-2000XCM with an AO-7.
