First foray in AP - Moon

Ok, ok, I've dipped my toe into the soup of AP...

Seeing was not much chop for sketching, so took the chance to use my Rising Cam 224 camera to see what it and I can do. I know better seeing conditions also helps AP, but it is what it is.

Alright, roughly 30seconds of AV captured using the 224 on a 9" Mak (3100mm native focal length). Stacked using AutoStakker, and narrowed the selected frames to just 5% due to the poor seeing, followed by wavelet adjustment with Registax 6. Little tweak with Photo Gallery, as I am having to learn about other image processing software. Learning how to use wavelets, and it is a learning process.

Many thanks to Carlton for guiding me through the process from image capture through to rudimentary processing. Ta mate!

I'm pleased enough with this start. Hell of a learning curve to climb. Would have been finished up for the night a lot sooner though if I had just been sketching...

Alex.
