Lightning Demo: SH2-71: Part 1
Published 2025-07-21 This is the first lesson of processing a narrowband example with RGB stars for the SH2-71 (a bi-polar planetary nebula). We begin…
Lightning Demo: SH2-71: Part 2
Published 2025-07-21 In this second part for processing SH2-71 the basic steps of star removal and NB normalization are shown. The narrowband stars can…
Lightning Demo: SH2-71: Part 3
Published 2025-07-21 This final lesson puts it all together by creating a luminance channel, blending in the SII and finally adding the RGB stars…
Processing NGC 6782 (Spiral Galaxy, Mono, LRGB example)
Showing perhaps some slightly more sophisticated techniques this demonstration shows the real way to process galaxies and get consistent high quality results. Explanations and deeper dives into the the "why's" and "how's" are found elsewhere (Including the Infinity Subscription and Deep Sky A. These are Lightning Demos!

Lightning Demo: NGC 6782 (Spiral Galaxy)
Published 2025-09-10 This lesson demonstrates the workflow for a typical bright galaxy. This one has some detail with a bright core and subtle color.…
Description
Lightning Demos deliver rapid-fire processing walkthroughs that focus on just the steps—no fluff, no deep dives—just results. Perfect for when you want to see exactly how it’s done, fast.
This course will typically have 2 to 3 examples that feature different kinds of processing. This 2025 edition of the course is now complete with 3 examples.
