This is an older image of the Moon taken on Valentine's day 2008. I gave the source AVI to a graduate student working on a Super Resolution algorithm and I thought to myself that it would be worthwhile to process the data the way I normally do. That way we'd have something to compare the new algorithm against.

This is some data that I would otherwise not have bothered to process.

AviStack 2500 alignment points and a stack of 200 out of 1300 frames.
Wavelet enhancement in AviStack.

Now that's a really nice piece of work, its almost worth the Flickr Pro fee alone. I wish I could get close to this level of detail, great stuff!

That is something else viewed at the large size. So how does it compare? Are you comparing this to registax and avistack?

@2lazy7: Not very well yet. This was done with AviStack. I plan to test RegiStax V5 today. The Super Resolution algorithm is completely different and is implemented in MatLab. It is not really fully developed yet. It was initially prepared for images where the seeing is dominated by isopanatic variations rather than the anisoplanatic stuff I usually look through where I live. The student has some more work to do to adapt the algorithm. I have read some papers that claim it is possible to overcome the diffraction limit - hard to believe.

Nice details as depicted through notes. But when viewed in large size the picture is mirror reversed, which makes it disorientating.

@Photogan - No, it is simply rotated CCW by 90 degrees. But, I agree that I should fix it.

Thanks JMZ. I got detailed names of many craters for the first time; like crater Nasirudin (named after a 13th century astronomer; Nasirudding Tusi; from present day Iran). The picture is very clear and the contours are very well shown. How did you take the pictures and how easy is it to mosaic on RegiStax?

JMZawodny says:

@Photogan: I no longer use RegiStax. I process the AVIs from my WebCam with AviStack. I then build the mosaic in PhotoShop.
