Whoa ! Detail plus. You are really getting the processing nailed without an over sharpened look. Beautiful Anthony.
This is just how I saw it last night (but not with that detail)
Wow there is detail on the moon. After getting a 12" I have learnt to fully appreciate these images as seeing detail like this with a 4mm EP is impossible even with great seeing. What is the magnification of your barlow?
Are you loosing some detail in the central area? Where Europa's shadow is?
Might be my monitor, but that whole area looks blown. Ran it through curves, and there is plenty of detail there, ALOT of detail actually. You probably already know this though. I'll leave it to the master. Great work mate!
Careful, Mitchell!!!
But yes. The appearance of some images might look bright/dark depending on the variation between your laptop settings and those of the source image.
You can download the image and take it into photoshop if you want to see whether it's 'blown out' or not. Open the image and then hover your mouse over an area you suspect is overcooked. As you move your cursor, you'll get some readouts over at the right if you've got the histogram pane open.
Yeah, it depends on how your monitor handles brightness up close to the maximum. Might be worth checking to see if your monitor is calibrated, and maybe adjust the brightness or contast.
On my display (Dell 24" lcd) the image is fine, and no part of it is overexposed. Some laptops are very bad at this.
Superb image Anthony. It has been your year this year. So much detail and very smooth. I have all but given up, the seeing is better now but I would need to drag the scope down to the house as the neighbours tree is in the way again. Keep up the lovely images. At least I can view vicariously.
