Well, let’s lower the standard of some of these posts a little so that mere mortals are not afraid to participate …
Here is a time lapse of the summer Milky Way recorded looking north across the Sydney basin. Be sure to select High Definition playback. I consider this movie good practice for if I ever manage to escape to dark country skies.

At present I am making time lapse movies using data saved in the 8-bit JPG format, not the Canon 14-bit RAW format. I would like to build the movies from calibrated and stretched raw data. At present I use Nebulosity which can calibrate the images in batch mode, but not stretch them in batch mode. Can anyone suggest affordable software I could use to stretch calibrate 16-bit frames in batch mode?
