A little more Photoshop processing on Tyler's version brings out detail in the center. http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=899 -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Tyler Allred Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 7:36 PM To: 'Utah Astronomy' Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] New M-1 shot Hello All, If anyone is interested, I could use some of my time at the February meeting to demonstrate a few simple processing techniques, using Patrick's original data for M1. I think that 10-15 minutes with that data might be useful for many folks who are learning to process astronomic images. After the meeting, people could experiment with the techniques at home, using the same data. That might be a fun learning experience. When viewing Patrick's data, I could tell that it was of excellent quality. I just used the LRGB jpegs that were posted in his gallery, but I'm sure that the original fits files would provide an even better version, especially in the bright central region. To be frank, I really didn't do all that much to the original data. It was good to begin with. Anyone with Photoshop could get results equal to mine, using some simple and easy to learn techniques. A little feedback would be good because I'm not really sure what people would like to hear and see in my presentation. I would like to tailor my comments to provide something that the group would perhaps benefit from and enjoy. Let me know if the processing exercise sounds interesting. Thanks, Tyler _____________________________________________ -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Patrick Wiggins Sent: Friday, January 23, 2009 8:56 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] New M-1 shot Thanks. But wait until you see what Tyler did using the RGBL images I posted. See it at: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=68&g2_page=2 I think in future let's all just shoot the pictures and let Tyler do the processing... :) patrick On 23 Jan 2009, at 10:57, Joe Bauman wrote:

I finally got around to processing, assembling and posting images of M-1 I took a few nights ago.
Posted is the clear, red, green and blue images and the color which I made by adding the others together.
The clear is a compilation of 30 one minute exposures. Each of the color files are compilations of 15 one minute exposures.
As before I'm happy to email anyone who asks for the FIT versions (the ones online are JPG) so they can try their hand at making their own color image.

Clear skies (please),
