Both this post and last post of Mars are about 1200 stacked frames in Registax 6 and then touched up a bit in PS CS5 Post Extras:       PiotrM Carpal Tunnel Reged: 01/03/10 Loc: Poland Re: Point Grey Firefly MV Jupiter [Re: Irish84]       #5066218 - 02/10/12 08:57 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Nice, although red a bit Which Firefly MV camera do you have - the 0.3MPix 752 x 480? Post Extras:       Irish84 member Reged: 02/25/08 Loc: Guelph, ON Canada Re: Point Grey Firefly MV Jupiter [Re: PiotrM]       #5066264 - 02/10/12 09:27 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Thanks. Yes thats the one 0.3MP 752X480. Maybe the "red" suits the mars image better?

I really like what you did in GIMP. What did you do in GIMP that I could do the same in PS CS5? You preserved the colour detail well. Thanks Post Extras:       claytonbigwood Carpal Tunnel Reged: 11/06/08 Loc: Adelaide, South Australia Re: Point Grey Firefly MV Jupiter [Re: Irish84]       #5067309 - 02/11/12 02:17 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Yes you can use CS5 to the same effect. I mainly just balanced the histogram for each channel until I got the desired colour balance and upped the saturation a tad.

Looking better than original for sure and approaching yours.

From the same night Feb 9th I tried the 3X with this result. Obviously not quite as crisp but more scale.
