Hi.

Finally no jetstream..YAYYYYY! But the seeing just after dusk was still terrible :confuse2:

Pic one is just the standard, run of the mill processing.

Pic two....Im not sure what I'm seeing here! Is this actual surface detail?? Same AVI but hand-stacked....Yes, I gave it the full 'treatment' with the waveletts in registax, which is what I do with every final just to see what I'm going to get....but I've never seen this kind of thing before! (Ignore the bright limb & look at the...detail? or just processing artifacts or whatever??)

I'm calling it my 'tiger mars' :lol:

Well, I don't know the technical terms. I just shoot planets! :confuse2:

Ok, We'll just call it hubble-like planetary details! Sounds good to me! :P :lol:

sorry, i believe you are correct when you say processing artifacts, but i was not sure if they are.

hence the ???? at the end of my comment.

but.....hubble sounds much better!!!
