Strategic Frequency Acquisition is a technique I devised of dividing high and low frequency information to enable astrophotographers to capture useful data during any phase of the moon, and it can be applied LRGB, narrowband or color. This video covers an improved method for scrubbing moonlight from high layer high frequency information via gamma constriction, reviews further filtration testing, and offers a brief synopsis of the SFA technique.
Terms you should know:
High layer information - Information shot during a bright moon.
Base information - information shot when the moon was dim or dark.
High frequency information - moonlight-resistant information containing detail
Low frequency information - moonlight-vulnerable information that contains color and light data
