Can anyone give some ideas how to use Iris or Registax to stack a few raw files to become one? The above pictures both are single frame.

hi clifford, may I recommand this site http://astro.ai-software.com/articles/d ... _iris.html

i think it could be useful for first time using iris. i admit the lagoon i posted here was the first time i used IRIS too. this site contains simple easy to follow instructions on how to convert, align , stack and calibrate you multiple photos.

Yes, it is a hot pix as mentioned by Zong Ye. Only see it in long exposure dark picture. Nothing there is the day photos.
