Mars from last night. Just above my neighbour's roof.
Equipment: LX200GPS 12”, ASI224MC and Celestron Ultima 2x Barlow. f/20.
Process: Exposure 6.5 ms captured in RAW16 by SharpCap 3.2 (approximately 100 - 125 fps). Total 15 minutes of videos (5 X 3 min) derotated in WinJUPOS 11.2 after each 3 min video was stacked by AS3.0 (extracted 65% or above quality frames). Wavelet in Registax v.6. Deconvoluted in Astra Image. Sharpened, denoised, levelled, vibrance/saturation and curved in Photoshop 2020.
Thanks, Nick. Hope you have a nice condition tonight! For this planet season the condition has been relatively poor in my place for the weekend imaging. I wasted so many GB and pixels.
Yes really good conditions are quite rare. I just got set up and had a look at Mars but it's still too low in the sky, I need to wait for it to get a bit higher.
