Hi there!

I am kinda new to ap, and i would really use some advice.

I had an Achromatic telescope, and i cannot deal with the blue star halos when processing.

I have Siril and Graxpert and Starnet++, and PS 2021

 

After running Starnet++ all of my pic where I used non apo refractor remains with ugly star halos in the background.

 

I am doing cropping, background extraction then denoising before running Starnet++, I tried the Negative transformation in Siril, tried desaturating stars but I can not deal with it.

 

I am uploading photo after starnet in autostretch view.

 

I would really appreciate some help.starless copy.png

I believe it's a limit on Starnet++. StarXTerminator does a better job, but it isn't free.
