I assumed you were still on a pier, if you ever were.

The technology that vexes me the most of the plate solving and plate scaling. Taking images on different sides of the pier, different days, different cameras, different scopes, different alignments, different seasons...and making them all come together?

No way. I don't accept it. Not possible, it's a sin against imaging. Imaging must be done in one run, one night, no change in equipment, and if you need to do a pier flip? Goodbye, you only get half the night then, no flips allowed. You'll never get an image stack to align unless it's all done at once, under highly controlled regulations. NEVER. Do all of your colors, all of the lights in one session, or give up and make it a mono image.

So saith I.
