Description

Single bracket run, no stacking. 300 bias frames, 200 flats, 200 darks. Images are registered by phase correlation and HDR composed linearly with a custom MATLAB script. Simple espenak filter applied in photoshop. Much more to come soon! This was captured from Western Ohio with some high cloud cover. Automation was done by SetNC.

Over totality I acquired 15 such brackets, and now the next step is to register them by their coronal features, and stack them! The final image should be composed of about 180 photographs.
