Re-Processed, Again

Fumlbing around with PixInsight stacking Orion Images

Slight re-processing of my stacked version of ~40 frames of images I shot during my Orionids outing last year at Silver Lake in the Green Mountain National Forest. This image is a bonus – after the fact I decided to stack most of the shots I took and align, register and stack them in Pixinsight. I was trying to catch meteors so I was using a 13s shutter speed, which is a just a bit too long for pinpoint stars, and if I were shooting for stacking I could have stepped the aperture down a bit to tighten up the corner stars. With the stars moving and the software doing the alignment the landscape gets blurred – I haven’t had the patience to blend in a static landscape with this shot – but its on my list of skills to practice.
