Great job on keeping the stars very close to their true colors too. And pinpoint focus!!! I'm learning how difficult that is to do.

I really like the Nebulosity you were able to capture with 3 entirely different exposures.
What program were you able to do this kind of Stack with???

Thank you A-PeeRWOW, completely different image. For tabletop work it is often hard to beat the staple of the field, softbox. Good work and well executed Craig.

I think considering what the original is, you did pretty good! Not sure if I could do any better! Again, you'll love that 150-600. But for any deep sky stuff, you'll need a drive. I think you have something already, if I remember?
Yes I do have a drive . It's from a Celestron DS 4.5" refractor and I made a piece of 1.5"x10" steel stock into a mounting bracket with 1/4" and 3/8" holes.

Houston we have lift-off. Here are the Softbox stacks you wanted to see, they look pretty good if I do say so.I do wonder what it would look like illuminated with a Speedlite and box diffuser.
D600 w/60mm Micro lens, f/7.1, ISO 50, 1/125 sec. Nikon SB-700 flash w/6"x8" softbox @ 45* angle,
Translucent Coaster is elevated so light passes completely thru top and bottom. 15 slices in the stack at .10mm each.

This has been an interesting fun project. I will re photograph as you ask after the 49er game. I think they finally have someone they can beat handily.An interesting subject and the photos came out well. I prefer the second photo. Catch rings are less noticeable and my eyeballs prefer the color. I do wonder what it would look like illuminated with a Speedlite and box diffuser. Lighting wouldn't be as even but it would get rid of the catch lights in the gold. I look forward to seeing more.

After Download, Viewing Magnification with the CTRL key and mouse Wheel to 200x. Around the edges of the gold area you can see the transition of stone to Epoxy. Someone did a very meticulous job.Is this viewing mag or photography mag? I have seen no images close to 200x magnification.
