Hi Folks

I tried some imaging this morning....Jupiter appeared kind of dim beside the moon but did a few captures at various settings1994693980_25stack.png.981bc32d2e400ef332c0e302b7f69f95.png

Thanks for looking

Cheers

You have captured the giant. Okay we can all agree that it is not going to win an APOD, but you should be rightly proud of that image.

Before we had probes into space and orbiter’s that could take close ups what you have there is just about what we had from the greatest scopes on Earth for the time.

You have banding and the GRS and mix of colours which look natural to me. 
Do you want to add any detail about how this image came about, camera, scope etc.

Thank you Marv

I used a 9.25 sct with a 2x Televue barlow and asi120mc camera.  25 percent of 5000 frames in Autostakkert.  Still trying to get my head around the linked wavelets in Registax.  Trying various settings to see what might work better.  I thought my collimation was all right but will have to check that again next time out.  Also I did a few captures without the barlow which seemed to be brighter

Great picture, and more importantly great progress! Really getting some good detail and it’s always nice to get the GRS in. Is there a reason you’re going for linked wavelets? They have their use, but I’ve often found that using the ‘sharpen’ and ‘denoise’ buttons mainly on layer 1 (crank the slider all the way), with minor increases to layers 2 and 6 get me 99% of the way there and are much easier to use as someone just starting out. Increasing that layer 1 denoise button a couple times can do wonders to cleaning up my images. Keep it up!

Wow....I tried that on layers 1, 2 and 6 as you kindly suggested....it sure narrows things down for me and I will be using that method as I get more captures.

I think it was 45 fps and did get 5000 frames.  Thank you again.1594066251_00_37_00layers126.png.f1bb92261223f00b9a96d2f0c67873e3.png
