I am a little behind in uploading this one. This was from the night following the full moon at the end of August, 31/8/2015. I was wanting to get a higher resolution image so decided to do as a mosaic . The above image is comprised of 15 panels where each panel was created using the Canon 70D attached to the GSO 6″ RC with a 0.75x reducer. The workflow for the image was :
– take 15 videos using the Canon 70D via Backyard EOS in planetary mode with 5x zoom.
– Stack the best 5% of 900 frames from each video in AutoStakkert2.
– Stitch the panels together using Microsoft ICE.
– Run the tiff file through Registax6 for wavelet processing to bring out detail of the craters.
– Final processing in Photoshop CC to adjust levels and curves as well as saturation adjustment to bring out the colour.
As my first attempt at a mosaic I am very happy with how this turned out.
