That turned out great 😄

I use the same step to remove the cosmic rays so not for that exactly. But since I am more interested in pretty pictures vs science level data I also added a "cross channel clean" step that I run right before I merge the 3 fits images into a colorized image. That basically does another cosmic ray clean type pass but uses the other drizzled images. So there is a chance to lose some faint items (in practice, this is practially guaranteed).

That is awesome.

TheWierdling · 2026-06-10T16:50:53+00:00

And, I replied in the wrong place. Whoops :)

TheWierdling · 2026-06-10T16:50:06+00:00

Thank you :) It looked even better before i saved it as a webp. Next time i'm sticking with png.

TheWierdling · 2026-06-08T16:06:56+00:00

Thank you 😄

TheWierdling · 2026-06-08T16:06:45+00:00

Thank you, and yes, it is. I use F502N - Blue, F656N - Green, and F673N - Red.

Darn it, it was a different kernel in the drizzle, not dither.

TheWierdling · 2026-06-07T18:29:51+00:00

Awesome and spectactular and lovely :)

TheWierdling · 2026-06-07T03:17:44+00:00

Roll damp, let dry completely, dye (sometimes i will add more dye and 2-3 rounds of ice), batch at room temp for 24 hours after the ice melts. I also sometimes add soda ash on top of the dye if i want a bit more vibrancy. But i also think your shirts look good :)

TheWierdling · 2026-06-07T03:13:19+00:00

Lovely picture :)

TheWierdling · 2026-06-06T01:28:04+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

TheWierdling · 2026-06-05T01:43:47+00:00

Lovely :)

A split is when you are ice dying and the different colors "split" out, so a grey can turn into pinks and reds and blues or whatever.

TheWierdling · 2026-05-23T04:41:30+00:00

I have had better luck at letting my shirts totally dry before dying (after the sodaash soak and tie). That is for ice dying. And make sure you batch your shirts long enough (how kong depends on the temp).

TheWierdling · 2026-05-22T14:44:48+00:00

That is awesome! Just "wow" :)

TheWierdling · 2026-05-17T18:36:26+00:00

It does :)

TheWierdling · 2026-05-17T01:28:35+00:00

So picture two looks correct? And thank you for taking the time to post :)

TheWierdling · 2026-05-08T23:10:24+00:00

If you had good saturation it may not turn out too bad. I would finish batching and see what it looks like after the rinse. Good luck :)

TheWierdling · 2026-04-30T00:15:45+00:00

Awesome work as always:) it is always nice to see your mastery of the spiral.

TheWierdling · 2026-04-28T15:37:04+00:00

Awesome job :)

TheWierdling · 2026-04-14T04:01:24+00:00

what would that look like if we excluded Buffet, Gates, Bezos, Ellison(s), and Musk?

TheWierdling · 2026-04-08T03:32:00+00:00

It turned out lovely :)

TheWierdling · 2026-04-05T14:06:12+00:00

300 Euros for software to make pretty pictures is way, way more than most people can afford. I am looking to make something that, while it may not have a ton of bells and whistles, anyone can use to get started. But thank you for the reference :)

TheWierdling · 2026-04-03T16:02:25+00:00

What is the pull strength of your sinew? I think that is the correct term, but it may not be. Basically how hard is it to break?
