Hi,

I used my Celestron 6SE and Zwo asi224mc to capture the area around these craters, Mare Nectarus and Rupes Altai to the south.

5000 images, best 50% used.

Just looked at the upload on my mobile and it has a decidedly green tinge to it, sorry! Funny how images can sometimes look different on different screens 🤔

Nice detail. If your ever unsure of colour balance. Just go to registax and push RGB Balance. It shows the blue was a little low. If you push auto balance then Do all

registax will auto correct the RGB balance. Its a great quick check and adjustment

Thanks! I'm going to check my camera settings because I think I adjusted the colour on it last time out and I'm thinking that maybe the control is sticky? Still getting used to Sharpcap. Apropos, I want to try live DS stacking with the set up, I'll have to read up on it too.

Thanks again for the tip!

Here's the image again with the RGB Auto Balanced. I forgot to mention that I was using a UV-IR Cut Filter. Will this make the image less red to the camera?

I restacked the images and used the best 15% this time round (was 50% before, seeing was not  ideal so this was too optimistic). It seems a little sharper now.
