Hi Guys,

my previous NGC4945 was not centred so ive decided to give it another go. Sky condition was worse. you can actually see the mist and fog in the sky.
Anyway its 23 x 84 second exposure stacked with darks subtracted. I don't think it is as nice as the previous NGC4945 but i guess this time it is centred

comments welcome.

I think you've got more detail in that than the last image. Have you considered stacking your last images and these ones?

thanks adam. you think this one is better? don't think it will work stacking my previous image with this one. The previous pic is completely rotated.

D'oh

I think there is more detail in the galaxy - coud be that you stacked more images.

thanks guys. no problems alex go for your life at my images. i can actually tell from your stack. the purplish colour is stronger. what stacking program did you use?

well done and thanks

Eric used Micro Soft Picture it! Standard 9 an old program but it has the ability to merge two photos evenly or the centre of one with the out side of another (sides ,tops as well). It allows you to rotate the images to line up.. it is not flash but very handy for me.

Thats one of the best ive seen from a dsi. inspirational stuff
How do you get so much detail without blowing out all the stars in the front?

EzyStyles (Eric) · #10 28-05-2006, 06:16 PM

Thanks Alex, will give MS Picture It a go.

Thanks Josh for your comment
