Venus with IR filter 28/12/2019 - Overprocessed?

Hi all,

 

Me again, with my lastest attempt on Venus taken from my terrace. I believe that, in my quest for getting something new out of the data, I might have overprocessed it. Please, let me know what you think:

The gear:

    Celestron CPC 800 GPS XLT
    ZWO IR 850nm Pass filter
    GSO 1.25" 2.5x Apochromatic Barlow Lens
    Risingcam GPCMOSS02000KMA

The software:

    ToupSky
    Autostakkert
    Fitswork
    The Gimp

I took 20 videos of 2 minutes each and stacked them one by one, then I corrected the colour levels for all the resulting images with Fitswork and re-stacked them once again to get a final image. Then I used Fitswork again for heavily filtering the existing wavelet noise (here is when the "clouds" came up) and, finally, The Gimp for correcting the colour levels and export the results to jpg. Quite a lot of work, to be honest... My next try (if I get a new one before March, that is) I'll go up the mountain to try to capture the videos with less Earth atmosphere in between.

Regards,

NV
