One look at that and I had to go back and put my socks on! shocked Very impressive. Wonderful detail and exceptional overall processing balance.

You are definately one of the standard setters. smile

Wes and all,

Oh yes....Cor is looking for ideas for the next version of Registax. One idea he seemed to like was being able to select multiple alignment points on a single process. Not sure how one does that, but it sure would be nice if it can be implimented.

Thanks.

Hello Wes,

A stunning image!!

Is there anywhere on line where I can get more information on the DMK-21F04 camera and its use in astro' work?

With results like yours, I would consider purchasing one.

Thanks

Paul

Breathtaking image, Wes. The smaller craterlets must be less than a half a kilometer wide. amazing work. Keep 'em coming.
