As usual, i was impatient & only got one moon.
the two mono were taken with SW150, DMK, 60fps, x2 Barlow, 480frames, IC Capture, stacked with Autostakkert.
The colour one, which looks a bit smoother, SPC, 10fps, SW150, x2 barlow, IR filter, 480 frames, Sharpcap, stacked with Autostakkert

Looks like Jupiter is on the cards for next weeks talk :lol:
I think there is a problem with the stacking of your colour image,
It appears that you have a ghost image, if you look at the top of the image,
roughly 12 o clock position and 1 o clock, it looks like you have another image
inside as if its stacked a few images off set,
You can see the distinct edge of jupiter and then a faint band extending just above the main edge,
Good capture though.
Mac.
perhaps i did the stacking box's too big. i think they are not supposed to overlap the disc

It could be a misregistration. On the other hand it might just be an artifact of the wavelet deconvolution. I know that I, also, get this frequently on my planetary images.
Good detail Fay.
Registax I find is not brilliant at getting images registered, I sometimes stack data from 2 different AVIs, which have not moved hardly at all I put a square align box around both and end up with 2 Jupiters in different parts of the stacked image, not even overlapping sometimes. I have had this a number of times even with the sun I get overlapping Suns. Even using Registax 6 and align points.

In any case, you've captured a good amount of detail!!
Well done.
Thanks. still would like a larger aperture for planets & galaxies, i would probably enjoy doing them more then
Fay, have you thought of combining the mono image with the colour one i.e. LRGB
Carole
Very good Fay - the first B&W one does it for me - like mac pointed out there are ghosting issues with the colour one...
Carole dont think they are good enough to do that ha ha ha
