Hi all,

Another shot from October 14th. I applied more sharpening than I usually do with my images, but it just appeared too soft to me. Hopefully it doesn't appear overprocessed.
Meade LX90 8" SCT @ f/25, DMK 21AF04 monochrome camera @ 30fps, R+IR filter, 400/2250 frames, taken 9:32 UT, resized 110%.

Hi Ed -

As I mentioned on the other forum, I think the processing is good. Copernicus is a challenge - fresh and sharply defined but set amidst a sea of soft slumping material that seems to defy sharp foucs.

Hi Ed,

Very! good image, nice clean processing and IMO not over processed at all.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
