Intro to image stacking: Step-by-step

[bloodhound31]

Like a lot of astrophotographers, I get repeated questions on how to do things that although may seem simple, I have to remind myself that they were once beyond me...

So last night, I sat up all night and stacked some images in Deep Sky Stacker, taking screenshots all the way and writing down what I did as I went.

Hopefully this can answer a lot of questions and get the new blood in the game well on their way to adding to the richness of images proliferating amateur astronomy.

Good stuff Barry, I can see that would have taken you a while to put together. DSS is a beast best approached when tamed and your tutorial is very informative.:thumbsup:

Very nice. I'll have to walk through it in detail when I get home. But rest assured I'll be bookmarking it ;)
