Aristarchus in Saturated Colour

Zac Pujic · #1 15-08-2005, 05:21 PM

Here is a saturated colour image of the Aristarchus Plateau. I used an LRGB approach to combine a b/w and a saturated colour image. The result shows the colours of the plateau.

Welcome Zac,

nice to see you joined up after seeing a few Ice In Space people from Astrofest. Nice image there too. I like the colour, it gives it a little bit of depth for just staring at for a while. The features do stand out better.

BTW, if you intend to show off your photoshop skills then please feel free to pass them on

Great pic and some clever (but simple) processing. Welcome to the site Zac

I enjoyed your informal talk on the "colourful" moon at the SAS meeting a few months back.

(Looks like Bird will have some stiff comp in webcam planet imaging on this site now

Love those saturated moon images. It adds so much texture, contrast and depth. Almost 3-D. Oh and
