New Year's Day Sun

Post by Teriann »

Had a chance to get some data today. I took two frames and made a mosaic of today's sun (Lunt 100/DmK51):





I also took several frames using the Barlow and merged them and set them to display with Zoomify. That data is at:

I don't know how to insert this into the message, so you'll have to go to the link above. My first time trying this and I did learn some stuff. Not perfect but a reasonable presentation all the same.

Very impressive!
Good focus, good definition.
I'd reduce the processing a bit - looks a little "over cooked"....
