Stacked and None Stacked

I have posted a few stacked images of the moon. This lead a few people to ask or not have thought about using a stack for astro work. So here is a Stacked and a None Stacked image. Both have had a very similar, if not that same post processing in Photoshop. Stacked - 50 images stacked None Stacked Exif: Pentax K3, 1/200, ISO100, Prime Focus Sky-Watcher 80mm Refractor, Neodynium and Baader Fringe Killer IR Cut Filters and Sky-Watcher Star Adventuer 2i for Tracking.

Have to say, I think the Topaz AI edit by davidwozhere is superb...can even appreciate the difference on my basic monitor.

One of the few occasions when the before and after really live up to the marketing claims on these type of software products.

The two of you ought to get together and approach Topaz with a view to selling the images to them for their own marketing !

It is a bit expensive, I have to admit - but I got it as a (very) special offer bundle just after their last revamp. If anything, as Spad mentions, it can overdo it now and then and some subjects aren't suitable.

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
