This is really taken using ToUcam but is B/W modified version. The seeing was "great" in the afternoon...can't resolve those granulation. End up is those sketching like features. The sunspot image taken before this even worse.
Don't guess, taken by me, really. Yes, I am from Malaysia Astrophotography Group. Any comments are welcome.

Is the un-process frame image look like this?? May be the "sketching like effect" is cause by processing of the wavelet in the registax software.

Anyway, I always encounter this problem when using the registrax: want the image to look more natural or want to show more details?? :roll:

Don't be offened... This is the first time I notice the "Malaysia Astrophotography Group" in your image... Hmm... I wonder why I didn't notice it in your previous post :oops: :oops: ... May be my eyes got some stamps on it... ha ha ha :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Anyway, anyone else from your group visit SingAstro forum too?? Is this your group website: http://apgm.multiply.com/ ?? Finally, got a clear view of your group logo... hmm... illumiated double crosshair reticle with chinese characters ("Tian Ying She")... nice logo... :) :) :)

Have a nice day.

Beside processing of the wavelet in registax, seeing condition in the afternoon time and air turbulence inside optical tube is also a factor cause those effect. Maybe I really over processed on wavelet part. The raw frame did show some features all over the Sun surface.

Actually I been long time didn't post any astro images at here and I didn't put the logo and group name in my previous work...it is normal that you didn't notice it. So far, only I always visit SingAstro forum. The other members seldom visit astro forum online.

Hmm... you mean the "angry looking off topic" emoticon?? Ha ha ha... don't worry about it... That is the only off topic emoticon in the reply emoticons... ha ha ha... May be they should include a more friendly looking off topic emoticon... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Have a nice day.
