Second crack at solar, feeling a bit more familiar with it now.

 

Again using the CAS solarscope made by Solarscope Ltd.

 

1000 frame video stacked in Autostakkert using 30% of frames, processed in Photoshop.

Nice Dave

When in Photoshop try the Highlights and shadows Adjustment found in  -- image -- adjustments -- Highlights and shadows.

It will make a big difference to the dark edges.

Appreciate that Graham. Do you think the edges need lightening a tad then? Totally new to this game so all suggestions welcome

It would help to separate the edge from the background.

It would also help if you used flats when imaging but that is a completely different subject. 

Steve is the master of the Solar processing.

He set me on the path of how to process these images.

People think it is easy to do solar but it is a whole new ball game and learning curve.
