Description

One of my first captures with the Daystar Quark Choromosphere - not super happy with the color, but I'm really impressed at what this can capture.

Captured around 22,000 frames in three videos. Ran through PIPP to select 5000 of the best frames, and order by quality. In AS3! I reduced the stack to 10% for around 500 frames total (quality dropped off pretty quickly but again, this was the best 5k out of 22k).

Very aggressive wavelet transform in Registax 6; I'm really not a great judge for these more artistic things.

Cropped from 1024x768 to remove stack artifacts and added false color in GIMP.
