Animations from 9/28/2021: Playing catch up!!

Post by rigel123 »

The other animations I recently posted had a bit more activity to them, these are much more quiescent prom groups from earlier last week. Still some pretty motion in the proms with spicules dancing from the decent seeing on that day.

Nice shots and animations Warren!

I reckon there is some finer detail you can be teasing out of your shots. How do you sharpen your images? I think sharpening at a smaller radius / kernel size and you will get a bit more resolution. Post a screen grab of how you do it :)

Thanks Mark! I start out with some minor sharpening in ImPPG. I tease it until I start seeing noise or artifacts and then back off a bit. I will sometimes do a bit more sharpening in PS but I do trend more to a softer image than a hard one since we are capturing gases. I will go a bit sharper when seeing and the features allow it such as this one from 2014 (yeah, lots of activity back then!) I have actually used some of your techniques from your collection of tutorials which are great!
