Titan Shadow Transit animation 28/03/2009

Hi All,

This animation was created from R channel images taken every 10 minutes from 11:40 UTC to 12:20 UTC 28/03/2009.

Each image is the best 400 of 850 frames from that particular avi file.
The avi files were converted to bmp's in Virtual Dub and then cropped aligned and graded in PPM Centre. Stacking and applet processing was done in Registax V5 and LR deconvolution was done in Astra Image Pro.

The animation represents the best 4000 of the 9350 frames available.
One of the eleven images was not used as it didn't come up well enough.

The seeing was extremely variable, quite good early 7 / 10, but dropped off considerably later in the night to about 5 / 10. This has effected the last few frames of the animation.

Thanks for looking
