Thanks for having a go, Joe and Ingo. I'm surprised others haven had a shot at it.

While the captures are in mono, at some stage during my pre-processing (ppmcentre etc) they end up as RGB bitmaps even though they're single channel. So it's normal (for me) to have to convert them to greyscale before combining them.

I didn't have any trouble opening them directly in Registax 4 though?

Joe - your first 2 look good in terms of data and sharpness, but they're too pink/red. Try adding more green and blue in the levels. The last 2 are good for colour, but the details are kind of blurry and not sharp. Great attempts though, well done.

Ingo - yours looks good, nice colour but could probably do with a bit more sharpening. Nice job for a non-planetary guy.

I hope to see some others, and I hope this project has helped anyway, and I'm happy to do the same again in future when I've got good data to share.

By way of comparison, here is my version of processing on the same data, done back at the time of capture.

Of course, processing is a very subjective thing and what looks good to one person might look oversharpened, or the wrong colour, or whatever, to someone else.
