Nice image, I had some similar last night but not as good. Is that olympus mons at around one o'clock?

Absolutely Love the fine detail, really nice image. Ps hope you & your family feel better 👍

Thanks for your comments 👍

Love how natural it looks, I keep over processing mine but it's true that less is more. When you say 15% sharpening in registax is that just the top slider?

Sorry to jump in, so does astro surface just replace registax in your processing?

Finally had a go with derotating some images in winjup. Takes me a while to figure these things out 🙄 Weathers so awful, but managed to get a few goes at Mars on the 28th, really hard to get focus as the jetstream was bouncing it all over the place as usual. 5 avi's of 4mins. Setup- 250p, 2.5x rev barlow, QHY5-462c with IR-cut. 1st is the combined 2nd is one of the single subs I know its still overprocessed & still trying to get the colour balance right but enjoying the learning process just not the stinking weather 🤦‍♂️ Thanks for looking

Will try that thanks Kon 👍

Any idea how to change it?

Lovely images Kon. Glad you picked up the smaller polar cap I had that & thought it was due to the jetstream bouncing the image all over the place 👍 I presume you use Pipp to centre the image & quality control. Do you find that no matter how big the file is it won't let you keep more than 40k frames in quality estimation? Only ask as I've tried a higher frame rate of 400+(because of the dreadful conditions) which gives over 100k to put into pipp but when using the quality options it won't let me use more than 40k.

Love the detail you are able to pull out 👍 I'm struggling to even get a proper sphere with the awful conditions 🤦

Lovely clear night down on the IOW thought better get the scope out, but as usual seeing wasn't that great, really struggled to get clean focus, maps showed the jetstream was below us but there was still a wobbly flow......😠 Anyway managed a couple of 4 min avi's before the mist rolled in, they are a little clearer but still not great & a little over sharpened! 2 images 10 mins apart. setup- NEQ6, 250p, x2.5 barlow, QHY5 462c, UV IR-cut,

Lovely image, I see the eagles back 😜🤣🤣

Ah love it, great detail & the eagle to 🦅 I'm jealous , you must have had some steady conditions, although the Jetstream is just below us mine is still bouncing around like a pin ball machine. Love the image 👍

Wow thanks for that, you're a star 👍

Thanks Kon, have to be honest I did try Mars many years ago 🙄 this is the first time with a proper camera. Thanks for the advice 👍 Thanks geoflewis, will have a go at that. Love it 😀, I'll have to learn how to do that myself

Once again the stinking jetstream sat right on top of us, misty but really surprised to get a small ammount of detail. Well chuffed! 250p, NEQ6, QHY5 462c, 3min avi's P.S- Anyone know how to get rid of the rings around Mars after using wavelets? Can't see them on my laptop but plugged into the TV & they really stood out thanks.

Awesome pics especially the last one, love the detail. Animation is great to 👍

Some can tell by just looking outside no idea how! I find as soon as you get Jupiter on screen even before you start focusing etc it's bouncing around all over the place. Also when its slightly out of focus you can see the violent (obvious at the moment🤦) steam of flow from the Jetstream, it's a bit like a strong current in a river. You can look at the Jetstream forecast online (Google search) to get an idea of what to expect.

Had to have a go last night, first time in ages had a little bit of clear sky inbetween the wind & mist. Seeing looked slightly better but...... as I turned the camera on- yes you guessed it the sky was boiling under the blooming jetstream AGAIN! Anyway got a little detail come through even though the pipp videos were jumping around all over the place. Still getting used to processing with the new camera, probably to noisy still, really can't wait to have a go on a still clear night, I can but dream. A few from last night with 10" reflector, QHY5-462c, 2min AVI's

Lovely image, some great detail on there 👍

Fantastic images, love the detail 👍

Thanks Neil changed it in pipp, you're a lovely chap 👍 thanks for the reply

Not sure how to convert to a giff

Thought I'd have a quick go at a little animation. Its a little stuttery as its only 9 frames spanning about an hour on the 26th with rubbish seeing but great fun nonetheless. 2_pipp.avi

Thanks, looking forward to learning how to get the best out of the 462c Appreciate your comments Thanks, again we all are waiting for that one lovely clear still night..... dreaming!
