Telescope: Synta SW ED80 with a LongPerng 1.0x field corrector (F=600mm) on a SW Star Adventurer mount, camera: Canon EOS 6D. Over 300 images with various exposures were captured in total.
Good afternoon! I looked at the photos on the website, they are impressive! Could you tell me how you stacked the images that are NOT HDR? In Autostakkert?
No, during a solar eclipse, that doesn't work—the automatic alignment locks onto the Moon, and it shifts... So everything is done manually: for short exposures, I align based on prominences; for the longest exposures, based on stars; and for intermediate exposures and between reference frames of different exposures, based on the results of a HiPass filter (color contrast). I'm currently compiling the eclipse from April 20, 2023, in East Timor, and I'll try to describe the process... If you're interested—give me your email, and we'll get in touch...
