Copernicus Area

Had a long photography session this evening.  Shot probably an hour's worth of AVI's.  There is enough there to keep me busy for a few days.  I'll post different areas of the moon that I had photographed in the next several days.  However, not to leave you hanging, I'll put up a couple of images right now:

Here are the camera settings for this image:
[Logitech Webcam C160]
Resolution=640x480
Frame Rate (fps)=5.00
Colour Space / Compression=RGB24
Exposure=-3
Brightness=166
Contrast=58
Saturation=0
Sharpness=0
WhiteBalance=5640
BacklightCompensation=0
Gain=0
Taken with the red filter.

Here is another from the same AVI with a little heavier processing and different stacking arrangement:

 I'm not sure which I like better.

Processing done in Registax 6.  No other processing was done on these images.   There were 500 frames taken, and I cutoff to 95% quality.

One thing I will make mention before I forget:  I did some work on the clock drive before these images were taken.  One of the intermediate gears was loose and wobbling, which I tightened up, and the tracking shows much less movement now.  I believe the clock drive is tweaked as best I can make it, the images were steady on the screen.  Seeing was about a 6 on a scale of 0 to 10.

Here is an image from a different avi:
 Here are the details on this one:

[Logitech Webcam C160]Resolution=640x480
Frame Rate (fps)=10.00
Colour Space / Compression=I420
Exposure=-6
Brightness=190
Contrast=38
Saturation=0
Sharpness=0
WhiteBalance=5640
BacklightCompensation=0
Gain=0

There is less contrast on this one, it needs a little more work, but its too late tonight to work on it.
