Note that this is the from the same video as the picture above, but, more frames are used.
| Photographs were taken with a 3com HomeConnect webcam (at medium resolution, unless otherwise stated) at the prime focus of my f/15 7" LX-50 Meade Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope. All photos are at f/15 unless otherwise stated. All of these images were stacked using Registax 2.0. Wavelets were used to increase the sharpness. The files so created were then further processed with Corel Photopaint 9 using the unsharp mask, tone curve, hue, guassian blur and contrast. All of these are eyeballed for best iamge. |
