Exposure details: 40 x 1/500 Sec, ISO-200.DescriptionThis image of the full moon has been computer-enhanced to show the mineral colouration. Processing details: 40 of the best original frames (from 52 taken) were stacked in Registax 4 to produce a 'luminance' master. In Photoshop 7, each original image was also colour-balanced and saturation levels increased in stages. These processed images were then stacked to produce a 'colour' master. Both masters were then combined in Photoshop to produce the final image. |
