Fancy Proms and Spots - BONUS ANIMATION - CPC925 w Quark - July 8, 2017

Post by nickatnight »

Seeing was very nice first thing this morning. Not sure I did the captures justice. I might play with this data a bit more. Shot with CPC925, Aries DERF, Baader 3x telecentric, Combo Quark, .67x reducer, and ASI174MM camera. Processed with AstraImage and Photoshop. Comments and suggestions welcome.

Here's a first go at the animation. I'm gonna reprocess I think to see if I can get rid of some flicker.
