UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
This is my latest image of the Tulip Nebula. All the processing with APP and the rest in Photoshop.

CS, Robert
Oh man, I looooove these kind of colors in the stars, not saturated at all, great!

Thanks Vincent! The funny thing is, people are more fascinated by the star colors than by the nebula 😀
I have to say, the star colors are coming out much better in APP than in PI or DSS. 👍
Yeah sorry about that. 🙂 I love nebulae, but I never got these kind of well defined stars and knowing how much effort I put into trying to achieve that, then seeing this... mindblowing.
Yippee!!! My "Tulip in the Swan" has become NASA's "Astronomy Picture of the Day"😃
So cool😎 already my second APOD this year. That has to be celebrated, a clear sky is forecasted tonight😄
