I noticed mate...

The reason I mentioned you in particular is your previous interest in astrometry. I think your main issues you've had with it was not having a reasonable starting point for the engine to work from.

Unless of course, you've got it sussed and not told me :D

Fay

Didn't know there was a RAW files part in the gallery

Having made a complete hash of modifying my previous post -
Munstermans image rotated a bit better, Fay's image cropped to a similar size




Why don't these images appear in the post ?

Your links point to the pages on picasweb.google.com rather than to the actual images, and you've linked them as URL= rather than IMG= too...

mickw

Thanks for that Rick

I now remember that I posted the instructions how to do this for someone else  :oops:

Ian, I have put, I think, FITS info of one of the Firework images, in the appropriate section of Gallery, I think. Hope this is what you want.

I was hoping for the whole fits, including the image data :(

Rick

Yeah, all it's showing is the FITS header. Was that what you uploaded, or has the gallery thrown the rest away?

Fay

I will do the image Rick. I was not sure how to select it, with the correct address, from my pc.

But nice pic either way Fay.

Personally I don't think this is up to Fay's normal standards now, Fay you must try harder!



Fay

I know. I was never too struck on the Firework. But I reprocessed making the stars not so bloated. THen I read that it is a very difficult galaxy to see & then I was reading about the large amount of supernovae that occur there & thought that I may have one in the image. I have yet to succeed in uploading it as a fits from my pc.
