Well, I've just finished processing the avi's from this morning, 4th Feb 2006 from 04:24am to 04:52am. I just punched them through Registax with no other processing so the colour balance is a little off.
Hope you don’t mind the rules infraction! I kept the file size to 54K and the height to 353 pixels, but the width blew out to 3201 so will require some scrolling.
Apologies if this results in the post being removed; I understand, but thought I’d risk it!
Thanks
Dennis

stop it, stop it, my Brain can't take much more, this is absolutely beyond words - what a fantastic sequence. Even the overseas mags would be squabbling to get hold of this.
The moon appearing even has surface detail - check it out
I'm torn Dennis mate between inspired and thinking I might as well put the gear on e-bay.
i was watching ganymede flick in and out of focus down here and wondered whether detail could ever be seen.
sorry anyone else that i have said "brilliant" to as this sequence takes the mantle of top image post for my time at IIS. It has knocked chris venter's orion off top spot!!
congrats dennis!
please make sure you clean that camera so you can use the 4x powermate next time!!!!
it goes without saying, this must be submitted to all australian magazines!!! please, i can't wait to brag to my mates when opening the magazine and dropping your name!!!!
dennis, permission to create an animation for use wholey and solely on this site.
Hi Dave
Yes mate - go for it. If I can provide any help in the form of the individual images, just let me know. I used ImagesPlus to auto-crop and auto-align the images used for the strip, then just stepped through the sequence using Windows Picture & Fax viewer in slide show mode and it was cool.
WOW! Well caught! but now I wanna see the earlier big version with moon detail
well thats it - the closer to equator, jet stream free northern regions are 'IT' for planets, no doubt about it now, is there
