"Real" view in Stellarium

[Alexander Wolf]

I love Stellarium even though I have several other such programs. Today I do not have astrophotography facilities, and am somewhat frustrated by the beautiful views of nebulae, etc., provided in ocular view. Is there some way now or might it be possible to add as a feature a more realistic view capability in Stellarium?

It would be great if I could visit ocular view and see a realistic depiction of what to expect through my eyepiece, i.e., little or no color, just the "gray smudge" that is more likely. If there is a way to switch Stellarium to such a basically B&W view I have not found it. Perhaps it could be added in a future release?

Thanks for your consideration.

Yes, it's possible; contribute the images. Otherwise, it's not likely.

It may be possible to implement this in a "color fading and texture blurring" shader. If somebody can implement this, go ahead!
