To do better than that, your scope would have to be in orbit. Wonderful shot, perfect processing, totally jealous.

Amazing detail considering the elevation. Great processing as usual.

Capture software?

Posted By Peter Morrison

I use VRecord (came with my ToUcam) for capture. I have recently been using ImagesPlus 3.5 for stacking and final processing. Registax still has more features for stacking, but it is really time and labor intensive in comparison. ImagesPlus does as well or better with more automation. Version 3.5 of IP doesn't have a single click function to do RGB alignment and it doesn't resample as it stacks, but those are the only things I miss from Registax.

Thanks everyone. My original post stated that it was unguided, but that was a copy/paste error. Sorry for the inaccuracy.

Appreciate the feedback.

Jupiter, GRS Sept. 22 a.m. UT, MY BEST SCALE

Posted By Peter Morrison

A great image - well captured and processed. Personally, I like a little more contrast too. I tweaked your image to bring out a little more detail. I used curves, readjusted the brightness and applied a slight richardson-lucy sharpening to define some of the edges a little better.
