This is image comprises of 22 images stacked ,then saturation increased + cropped in CS4

I wanted to process it into coloured moon ,but for some reason, I couldn't process it that way:(

@toofan :this one is better

Stuge: Very Beautiful.
Why you took so much Images? and then why you stacked them.
Whats the time difference between those 22 images.

What is stack photography? Thanks.

For what purpose will you need the camera for? Are you a passionate photographer or a casual one?

Between the two I would go for 1000D. Still the SX20 is a good camera for casual photo freaks.

@toofan - The first one is still better than the second.

@stuge - Do explain stack photography.

go for Panasonic FZ-35/38....as SX 20 doesn't have RAW capture...

OR

go for 1000D or wait for EOS 2000D...which is going to release in Feb....

ChitVan: Excellently taken.

drsubhadip: Go for DSLR. If your soul is of a Photographer. I never see videos again but the Images I keep watching time and again. And Its happen to everyone. Videos are for once but Images are for ever.

time difference b/w those images is none :)(maybe half a second or less

I did stacking to get more clarity .Stacking is commonly done in astrophotography .

1.I converted all raw images to tiff(using capture nx )[ cs4 sucks in handling raw atleast on my computer ]
2. later imported to Registax to stack them automatically .
3.Exported as .tiff ,then imported in CS4 -> tweaked with a bit like cropping done and exported as jpeg :)

lol :D..heheh

in b/w there nothing much in its treatment .picture was taken in raw .Later in capture nx, I changed the White balance as desired, and exported as jpeg .

I'm still call myself dumb in using cs4 (thanks to internet and youtube ) .I use a lot of plugins to make things easy (there is nothing wrong in using it )
