Description

Been drawn towards solar imaging lately, despite the seeing conditions likely being unsupportive of my already small aperture optics

 - 2 Panel video, 90s each with 1ms exposure
 - Stabilized in PIPP
 - Stacked in AS!3

PixInsight:
 - DBE to extract a background, Resample to match background size to image
 - Subtraction or division of background using PixelMath (my Flats didn't turn out well)
 - Dynamic Alignment, GradientMergeMosaic 
 - Restoration Filter, UnsharpMask
 - Masked Stretch to boost the edge prominences a little

Photoshop:
 - Crop
 - Background gradient/glow elimination
 - Coloration
