As an astronomical image post-processing technique, deconvolution from wavefront sensing (DWFS) is a powerful and low cost method for adaptive optics (AO) images reduction. It is based on deconvolution of short exposure images and simultaneous measuring wavefront sensor data, both are provided by adaptive optics system to improve the quality of images. However, for extended or dim sources observing, limited precision of the Wave Front Sensor (WFS) will lead to inferior correction quality of AO images, also these can hardly enhanced by DWFS method. We show here a simple and efficient solution, which combines the DWFS method with a shift-and-add (SAA) image reconstruction technique, designed for reduction of astronomical data obtained with AO system, especially extended objects. This scheme has been applied to the upgraded 61-actuator Shack-Hartmann based adaptive optics system, partially primary corrected extended object images at Yunnan observatory 1.2m telescope for astronomical high resolution imaging. Experimental result of Mars was presented.
