Herschel 06-07-06Posted By Gianluca Valentini |
Time extremely well spent and we should thank you for it, since we are now in the position to enjoy and appreciate its result.
Truly outstanding as usual Wes.
Only the Infinity, in my limited knowledge, can produce such results with so little frames! Needless to say, you also need a good hand such as yours to collect them and select them in order to produce these results
Ciao Wes

NOAA 10892 & 10893 in white lightPosted By Gianluca Valentini |
Hello Oliver and congratulations on the two really fine images. I particularly love the details in the granulation.
Very well done and thanks for posting them.
I'm afraid you're right: they are shrinking :C Today here the sky is clear but there is a very strong wind, so any attempt to focus has been futile. No images, but visually the 2 active areas are definitely smaller and with a less interesting structure.
Ciao Oliver

Jupiter in IR June 3rd 2006Posted By Gianluca Valentini |
This time I double checked: it is you 
And I repeat exactly what I said in my erroneus post: given the low elevation it is a result to be proud of

Sweet image Wes! Great focus with Io perfectly round.
A supreme job. As usual, I should add

6 inches of JupiterPosted By Gianluca Valentini |
Fantastic result Alan! Lots of detail even with a small aperture and the processing makes it a really beautiful image. I can't believe that your Jupiter is just as elevated as ours
This image makes me hope for the future results in planetary imaging with my new scope, despite its minor aperture compared to what I use now. I'm anxiously waiting for TEC to deliver my 180mm/F7 fluorite APO, the scope I had to turn to after knowing that my 250/F12 Maksutov-Cassegrain will not be manufactured anytime soon (got bored of waiting). I should also have your processing skills to complete the "picture", but I'm working on that
Ciao Alan

PS Paolo keeps on teasing me telling me that I simply bought a very big and super-expensive viewfinder

Jupiter 06/21 GRS and Oval BAPosted By Gianluca Valentini |
Hello Chris,
nice image, but I could not resist working on it. I reduced the size, removed some of the very evident noise (grain) and tweaked the levels in Photoshop to show the planet's limb. I believe it doesn't loose detail and the overall look is less "extreme". However, this is how I would have processed it and it is largely a matter of personal taste. I would love to see though this image before you resampled it to the present size.
Ciao Chris

AR10898 in whitelightPosted By Gianluca Valentini |
Very good images Oliver!!! My white light films don't look very good (my focal length was probably excessive for the seeing conditions. I still have a few ones to check, but it doesn't look too good 
Ciao and again congratulations on these great captures Oliver.
