OAS NOVEMBER 20013 ASTRONOMY EZINE VOL 2 | Page 32

32 work through this tutorial a great way to get your desired result without reinventing the wheel. Have fun with our Sun Andy Devey Photo 1: Here is my first attempt at a high resolution solar mosaic; it comprises 40 separate photos taken at 1.6m focal length. At this stage I have merged the photos but not balanced the tones to make it look like a single image.. Photo 2 my first ever large scale mosaic attempt: a photo of the Moon in Memory of Neil Armstrong Photo 3: Here is my first attempt at a large scale high resolution solar mosaic achieved with only very basic skill level in Photoshop CS5 usage. There is 20 hours work in this image and I shall revisit it from time to time in the future as my skill levels increase. OAS EZINE
