Joe, Very nice Moon shot. How did you stitch the photos together? There’s some great detail on the sunspots, also. I’ll have to rack the magnification up on my setup and see if I can get that sort of detail. I made a solar filter for the 10”. I’m sure it’s not as nice as the one Roger made for you. It’s ugly, but it works. Maybe I’ll try to get some photos with that setup. I think it will have to wait until this weekend, though. I’m going to try Moon, too. Learn, learn, learn. Dave
Hi Dave, I just used the "Create Photomerge" function in Adobe Elements. I could make a better combination with Maxim DL, but the program can't handle such large files as the photos I took with our Nikon. But it will work if I reduce them -- and I think I will, because I had to reduce the final product to put it on the SLAS gallery anyway.
