A closer look at The ESA/ESO/NASA Photoshop FITS Liberator
For many years astronomical images from the world’s telescopes were reserved for an elite of astronomers and technical people. Now anyone with a desktop computer running PhotoShop software can try their hand at crafting astronomical images as beautiful as those from the Hubble Space Telescope.The ESA/ESO/NASA Photoshop FITS Liberator plug-in, makes a treasure trove of archival astronomical images from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, the European Space Agency’s XMM-Newton X-ray observatory, NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and many other famous telescopes accessible to home astronomy enthusiasts.With the advent of the FITS Liberator v.2, it became possible for people at home to create even more spectacular pictures like the iconic Hubble image “Pillars of Creation” in a matter of minutes.
Apart from the great advantages of an interactive workflow, the ESA/ESO/NASA Photoshop FITS Liberator enables creation of images with improved quality as the many greyscales in the original observations are preserved. This gives added detail in the shadows and an increased gamut (colour space) in the finished colour images.
