Waxing Moon

Heres the first image taken with my 4" Frac and Canon DSLR 19 frames stacked in registax (ISO100 1/640th sec) processed in PSCS3.

Nice detail showing through there Kevin.

Small point though: has registax clipped the upper left edge of the moon off your frames? The transition looks a tad abrupt.

BTW: Did you select single or multi point alignment in registax, as personally it's done some weird stuff when I've let it do multipoint on a lunar image?

I think it was me being a bit sloppy with the magnetic lasso in CS3 in trying to inverse select the Moon and cut some crud back in the background.

Ahhh - well that explains it.

How much tweaking of the "Wavelets" do you do in registax? -

Coz I'm sure the detail may turn out more crisp with a play, especially with the "top" slider - but of course it's down to your personal taste.

I didnt tweak anything TBH I haven't used it that much so havent got into experimenting with the settings. I also tend to think that sometimes it can be a bit over processed if you do so. I have seen some images that look ok and seem to be more crisp and detailed but if you zoom in you can see that it is not natural.

I kind of equate "wavelets" with "un-sharp mask" in CS3, over use can do more bad than good.
