My best shot - Jupiter

Post by boothee »

Hi,

Here is the best picture of Jupiter that I've ever captured.
Taken on 07th Sep, 2008. Stacked the best 300 pictures from 370 pictures avi.


Edit only in Registax
Image


Adjust color a bit in CS3

I hope I could get better shot if the atmospheric condition is calm.

Captured using 3x barlow lens.
Stacked in Registax4. Used custom alignment point.
Resized 200% in Registax after processing. :D

Clear Skies!

:)

Thanks for your comments zackae.
I think so. Another factor might be the balance between exposure and gain?

Clear Skies!
