Jupiter 19th October

I redid this one using different align settings. I think the shadow is improved??

It is from a later avi so not really a fair comparison.

[Clayton]

Here is the original with the new technique

No real improvement I think

[Clayton]

On closer examination I'm not so sure there is a slight improvement I think

When compared to this old version.

[arad85]

Yup - definitely better IMHO

[Clayton]

Thanks. I think this method may only work for images with a small sharply defined feature as I have had no improvement with other shots

[Clayton]

Another go!

Comments welcome

Hmm.. got some of the sharpness back to the shadow, but you've lost the moon

Oh well 2 steps forward, 3 steps back

Bloomin' difficult this processing Mind you, I'd kill for some skies where I could actually take any sequences

Defianatly better aligned Clayton more detail too i think

[Clayton]

Thanks Neil,

I'm trying out a new (for me) processing technique.

I first noticed it in the Registax V5 manual but after failing to get it to work, came up with my own version.

The idea is to work in LRGB and apply the wavelets to the L channel only. Then combine with RGB, using the colour from the RGB layers.

I don't quite understand why in that simple form it should make a difference, and I'm not certain it does, but early results look promising.

The idea is that one can remove the Blue info from the L channel (Blue is normally the most blurred) but I haven't gone that far yet.
