one of the shots from max coverage lunt single stack 30sec grab, stacked autostakkert and wavelets in registax6, then coloured in photoshop

oh and to balance i took a grab from the other side to make it widescreen

reminds me of pacman

Nice work but I reckon it could be sharper...Unless the seeing was ordinary?

h0ughy (David) · #3 10-05-2013, 12:53 PM

the seeing was 50/50

Stellar shot, David!
Can you please list the equipment you used to capture this? Was it one 30sec exposure?
Cheers!

it was a Lunt 60 single stack with a DMK41 camera

[DMx 41AU02.AS]
Frame Divisor=1
Resolution=1280x960
Frame Rate (fps)=15.00
Colour Space / Compression=Y800
Exposure=-8
Brightness=32
Gamma=45
Gain=260

the raw video was run through Autostakkert and the best 100 frames were then stacked. the resultant tif file was then run through registax 6 and wavelets applied and then off to photoshop to colour in the mono image with red 1.8 green 0.68 and blue 0.15 and then saved for the web as a smaller jpeg for posting

That is a great shot David, well done.

I got cloud and rain with an occasional glimpse at school but no pics.
