Alpine Valley Rille

Barely, barely caught the rille which is the faint line in the floor of the valley.   Not the best shot but this is the 4th attempt to shoot this rille.


Best 250 frames out of 5000.   Data captured on 11/15/18.   C11, 2.5x barlow, ASI 174 camera.

(*Interesting processing note:  I tried several times to bring it into Registax to sharpen via "wavelets", but it would create a muddy picture that made it look like there were multiple rilles in the Valley.   I finally took the unsharpened master from Autostakkert and took it DIRECTLY into Photoshop.   Here's the surprise:  Sharpening in the Camera Raw filter environment duplicated the funny results from Registax wavelets;  however, doing a basic UNSHARP MASK worked way better in bringing out detail without introducing strange artifacts!   Victory for UNSHARP MASK!!!)
