On the evening of July 31st, 2020 I tried imaging in IR for the first time. I used an ASI290MM camera with a Televue 2.5x Powermate along with a Baader IR pass filter on my Celestron 8" EdgeHD telescope mounted on the Celestron Evolution mount. Both ended up somewhat overprocessed but were the best couple of images out of the various combination of processing techniques I tried so far on the data. Data was stacked in AutoStakkert, with wavelets applied in Registax. Some minor adjustments were made in Pixelmator and some noise was removed using Topaz Denoise.

The following are a selection of images I've taken from most recent to oldest. Currently, all planetary images are taken through a Celestron C6 using a Canon SL2 DSLR camera. Data is processed using aPIPP to process and convert the raw camera video, AutoStakkert to stack the video frames, Registax to sharpen the image using wavelets, Pixelmator to adjust color, contrast, etc, and finally Topaz DeNoise (in recent images) to help remove lingering noise. I'm currently processing all data on a 2016 12" Macbook with PIPP, AutoStakkert, and Registax (which are PC programs) running on the Mac using WineBottler.
