More offerings from Wednesday nights transit.
I used the same setup as usual. The seeing was around 3, with some high cloud.
I experimented with the White Balance settings on the camera, these pics were taken on "Interior Lighting". The "Bright and Sunny" setting was too blue, and wouldn't allow any red to come out.
Processing with K3CCD Tools for some reason didn't work well, so I stacked with Registax instead.
I used the RGB Shift in Registax, but it only works to a certain point. I seem to be picking up more chromatic aberation ( is that the right term) than usual lately. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that Jup is so bright?
Final tweaking was done with the freebie program that came with my old Polaroid digital, "Photo Impression 2000". Adjustments in midtone, highlights and shadow, saturation, contrast and sharpen were used.
Image 18 is my favourite but I also like the darker pics because you see more detail.
The best raw frames from each is posted.
2.62 gig over 34 avi's. Just to get 4 pics of any sort of worth. Is this the usual ratio of success vs flops?
