Mmmm, I'd be wary of this! Adobe sell photoshop for around £600 if you want cs6, an utter rip off (says the man who bought full creative suites 5 & 6!) Elements is very useful at £70 odd, but does not have masking - this shouldn't bother the casual user though! Can't recommend PaintshopPro too highly, £24 for v. X3\ said:
It certainly is, every clear night I'm outside using my telescope, fully computer controlled and guided of course. These days I spend half my viewing time looking at the night sky via my laptop rather than having to squint through the eyepiece at awkward angles. Isn't technology great!

That's a large and intricate image border to select so you can paste it onto the star background, must have taken a while. Or maybe you took the pic against a highly contrasting background, like the blue screen used in CGI, and had the automatic select do most of the work. I love playing around with PhotoShop and as astronomy is my main hobby I spend many happy hours teasing out small details in my astrophotographs. Cheers.

Mine wasn't as involved as that Kieth :D all I did was take a photo in front of a black backgrown cropped it then altered the lighting and contrast and added some stars took me about five minutes\ said:
.................:rolleyes:Your right Ian it would but unfortunately the app I use doesn't do it\ said:
