About this image

I’ve been continuing my Planetary imaging journey

I processed using AutoStakkert3, Registax6 for Wavelets only then Photoshop (a few tweaks), Topaz Denoise and a few tweaks in PixInsight to help ‘highlight’ the moons.

I have learnt that I need to reduce my video capture time to approx 1min for Jupiter, learn Winjupos and capture data with Firecapture or something like that as the ASIAir pro – whilst brilliant for DSO’s – it doesn’t yield high enough frame per sec…… Lots to learn but that’s one of the many fun things of this hobby.

Clear skies all.
