  1. This is the only salvageable image from last night. It's not great focus and it was starting to get windy.

    It is a single 20sec shot at 800 ISO at prime focus on my SW150p, manually focused by eye and the subject was in Portsmouth's sky glow.

    I have played with the levels and contrast and slightly with the curve, but feel free to have a play ........if you want...

  2. Hi

    This is a quick pic of the Orion Nebulae from Sun 9th Jan.

    It was through my x2 barlow (for focusing reasons), 5 x 10 second exposures at ISO 800 (because of vague polar alignment........ yeah that's about north....).

    Only a little playing with levels and curves in photoshop.

  3. A couple of quick captures of Jupiter, from Sat evening, with the new flashed Philips SPC880/900NC webcam and a 2x barlow through a SW Explorer 130pm (with the RA battery going flat, hence it's not as clear as it could be).

  4. Martyn. I used a cheap logitech Quickcam Pro 4000 (£10 off ebay) with the ir filter removed and an old 35mm film pot taped to it so it fits nicely in the focusing tube of my SkyWatcher Explorer 130p. I then tinkered around with the gain, fps, gamma and captured a 1min 40 sec avi in some free software called wxAstroCapture. Opened the avi up in registax which separates the avi into individual frames and then stacks all the images into a single still frame, then finishing touches in photoshop.
