"Why are there so many remakes in your work?" (c) "Let the one with bad old songs write new ones." (c) While there's no new material, I'm practicing on old data using new software and algorithms that have accumulated quite a bit over the past two years. Excellent: General Hyperbolic Stretching (GHS) in Siril; Foraxx formulas for combining HOO in Pixelmath; GraXpert AI for one-click background equalization. Good: AstroDenoisePY – a decent free neural network for noise reduction, trained on astrophotography. It works best when used in combination with Topaz – if you apply Topaz after AstroDenoisePY, it stops acting up and inventing details. Satisfactory: Astrosharp – intended as a free alternative to BlurXterminator, but it performs much worse so far. The author is actively working on it, so I'm hoping for progress; deconvolution in Siril – maybe I just don't know how to prepare it properly.
