Sun, 8/10/16. White light and Ha

[Bobby1970]

Today i attempted for the first time, to stitch two photos of the sun together. The WL shot is taken through an ST80 refractor using an altair GP Cam colour. I ended up taking two videos covering the whole disk, then using Registax, ended up with two photos which i sent to Gimp as layers. I am fairly pleased with how the WL shot has come out.

I tried following the same procedure with the Ha scope. However my two final photos didn't appear to have the same sort of colour/saturation/brightness. No matter how i tried to even this up the "join" still shows in this pic. I will repeat this at some point and see if i can improve.

 

Thanks for looking :-)

Nice one Bobby, they're round, the right colour (for non astro folks anyway) and they've got spots on so they'll do for me
