10x 1/1500s @ ISO 800 through a gap in the clouds. I used Autostakkert! as I had read of people including the author stacking DSLR images with it, including deep sky subs! It doesn't handle RAW but will take a full size TIF. I used APT to capture but didn't turn on its 'Save a TIF version' option which would have made life easier. It seems to have done a really good job. Params were as for planets but i used 400px alignment points (the max) and a high min brightness level setting 75 points.

Sounds like we both made almost the same mistake Duncan with what capture format we should have used.
Well done. Yours is a lot later in the day than mine, perhaps we could manage a mosaic between us.

That's come out really nicely!

Great picture Duncan!!
Nice one! Definitely better with a telescope attached to the end of the DSLR. :lol:
