Experimenting with new processing for solar imaging.

[Nigella Bryant]

Processing my recent images using a new idea I found by tweaking image in ImPPG.

What set up are this imaged with? 

I really hope I will get something like this out of my Daystar Scope. That is confirmed delivery tomorrow!

superb as usual, if I ever get a scope (out of stock) would be looking for something like your. Very sharp throughout, love the left hand side on the first one

I use a lunt 60mm double stack matched with a Zwo Asi 178mm. Driven on a Skywatcher Solarquest Mount on an Eq6 tripod. Also electronic focuser.

is this the tripod -Skywatcher Stainless Steel Tripod 2" For EQ6 - £145 and about £245 for the solar quest mount 

Looks very strong, need something sturdy with all the wind we get up here

Yes, it is Richard, very stable. You have to have the adapter plate too. I already had the eq6 tripod. The tripod of the Solarquest mount is very flimsy especially with the weight of the doubt stack.

How much is the adapter plate?, what make size is it - thanks

£39 from flo.

[richard ashbee]

What make is it Nigella, or just the normal one for the EQ6

Very nice images, super sharp!  I was looking for some text on how you did it!!  Maybe a trade secret?

Hi, will get my head around the new technique and write up a work flow in the next few days. I'll post under a new heading about processing solar images.

Lovely set of images.
