Double rainbow with Alexander's band

The weather today was very unpredictable... rain and sunshine and thus high chance to observe rainbows. Around 5pm we could observe a double rainbow which was very bright and also I could see the dark band, Alexander's band.

Use of RegiStax6 Jupiter

In stead of using Autostakkert! I did use RegiStax6 to stack my .avi movies from Jupiter. The movies were taken using the ASI224MC camera on my dobson Orion XT12" last friday, March 25th.
The picture below is the result of 94 frames stacked and the imaged was saved under tiff and edited further using CS4. The final result is saved under jpg format.

Besides the four galilean moons - Io, Europa, Callisto and Ganymede you can alse recognize the "clouds" on Jupiter's "surface". The equatorial zone in the middle and north and south of this the temperate belts and tropical zones.

The moon on Jan 17th, 2016

As I was looking how to optimize the stacking of frames from .AVI movies I retried the free software RegiStax6. Last time the use was too difficult for me but today i found some more time to practice.
The result below is a shot from the moon on Jan 17th, 2016 taken with camere ASI224MC on Dobson Orion XT12. The result was finished using CS4.

Alfa ORI - Betelgeuze

Trying to make a picture of the red giant Betelgeuze using my dobson Orion XT12" with ASI224MC. I like the result after stacking the frames using autostakkert!2.5.1.18 and modifying the pictures with CS4.
