Andrew* Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Okay, this is stacked in Deep Sky Stacker of all things. I think I could have got a better result using registax but it didn't want to do it 32 frames, and saturated in photoshop. I don't know why the bottom half went so overly PINK, and I couldn't seem to correct it. But I tried again from scratch and this time the same part went all blue. So I'll just post both. Take your pick, and if you like neither, please - have a play!

Andrew* Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Okay, tried one last time. Registax was kind of okay with just 16 frames, although didn't feel like making a perfect alignment of them :? But the colour worked out (click to enlarge)Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinky Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Nice colour, especially int he registax version, shame it could not perfectly align them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1968 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 If registax is strugling Andrew it might be down to not enough RAM. My pooter used to struggle with big AVI's and it was only after fitting more RAM that it got better. I know you were not using avi but it still might be a memory problem.Nice pics BTW, I like the reprocessed version it is pretty amazing looking with the colurs.Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew* Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Thanks guys. Yeah, more RAM is on the books. My PC is pretty good spec except the RAM and memory card, so for processing both of htose could do with an upgrade.Okay, final reprocess now - really! I took the well saturated, but badly stacked image that came out of registax, and overlaid the colour onto the badly saturated, but well stacked image that came out of DSS. Best of both worlds Now I'm finally pleased with the result!(click to enlarge)Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooth_dr Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi AndrewThe last one is definitely the best, nice colour and better alignment. The 8" scope is just about perfect for prime focus DLSR imaging of the Moon.Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
