Managed a good run on the old girl this morning before the clouds rolled in once again.

 

Took a total of 30,000 frames in ten sessions.

Put all the AVI's into PIP and reduced them down to the 10,000 best ones.

I then ran these through Registax at 90% of the Reference frame.

This brought the final stack size down to 5,600

Tweaked in Wavelets then a quick polish in PS 6.

False colour added in PS 6.

Close up of the Sun Spot.

Same process as the full Disc using 12,000 frames.

too many frames Graham in my opinion.

Old Sol is dynamic and will show movement even at our focal lengths in that time frame, I have been recommended to keep it to about 3mins for a mosaic full disc you can do in 1000 frames or less and stack the best 50 to 250.

 

Some of my best are of a 101 stack.

Good point Steve. 

Will try stacking a single set. 

 

Thanks Stephen.

Nice to see you having another go Graham. A bit harsh with the wavelets for my taste but good non-the less.

I was thinking along the same lines Mike. 

Have to control the urge when moving the sliders.  :lol:
