Cracking shot, that last one. Only small on my screen, but amazing sharpness.

Cheers all.

Im pretty happy with how it came out for my first attempt. Ive been told I should get an IR filter ? to increase the level of visible detail ? Im not sure how that works yet, but Ill give it a try.

The amount of additional detail you get from the stack is amazing.

Very nice !!! What did you use for image stacking ? And how did you make sure all of them align ? :)

I just using the same 2 step PP I do on all my images. (well except for the stack :) )

First I load all my images into DXO and do all my RAW corrections there. I have found the DXO is better at managing RAW than Photoshop. Its lens correction capability seem to far exceed PS.

I then save all the images to TIFF and then use CS4 for the stack.

So far I just use the SCRIPT>LOAD TO STACK function in CS4. It does a pretty good job of getting the images aligned.

Then I just touch it up, crop it and its done.

Im sure theres probably a better way (hopefully someone can give me some hints).

Cheers
