AR12824 colour and B&W animations-23 May

Post by H-Alpha »

Dear all,

After trying several ways and software and thanks to kind advices, I managed to accelerate the time process for animations, so I wish to share with you the AR12824 on 23 May. (I understand that I have to create a page to upload images, in order to avoid overloading the forum... Will do asap... Sorry, for this time)

Lunt130MT, single Ha
PIPP (to reduce video size at best 500 frames)-->Autostakkert!(stack of 100 frames)-->ImPPG (batch process)-->ImPPG(autoaline)-->GIMP (crop, adjustements, filters/sharpening, colour, animation preview, export GIF)

The animation was made out of 28 captures, used as frames for the gif. 23 May 2021 15:36:31 UTC to 16:01:40 UTC. (about 25 minutes)
PLEASE give the animations the time to load and start moving... Perhaps more than 30 sec for both. The coloured one starts first.

First a photo from that day...
