Fairly high-res Venus transit

[Peter Ward]

Hope you enjoy this 100% crop from a high-res data set below.

I'm quite chuffed as the data shows similar structures, albeit not quite as well resolved, to those seen in the 1.0 metre + AO Swedish Solar telescope.

[Peter Ward]

Sometimes you need to go away for a time.... and look long and hard at the data when you get back.

Returning with a fresh approach, this hi-res view of the transit has lost its over-processed sharpening, I think there is now some serious detail in this re-pro image.

Hope you enjoy it.

The link same as before (http://www.atscope.com.au/BRO/gallery170.html)

[Peter Ward]

Ta mate... sometimes things work as planned :)



Yep..I tend to have experiences like that when I look at Martin P's deep sky images !



Thanks indeed



Ta. I really like how the re-pro turned out.

The spickules now have a nice graded/subtle look to them...as they should when you look at much higher-res professional data.

Unfortunately, it will take me a week to process a full disk mosaic using the same technique.... hence that won't be going into this year's CWAS/Malins

Yeah that is better. First one looked a little too harsh. This one looks as I would have thought it should look.:thumbsup:
