Image Stacking examples

The Images below are sequences from various points in the stacking viewing.  They are all images taken directly from the viewer. The initial  displayed image is the first shot downloaded from the Camera.   In use the first image appears at 20 seconds after the picture is downloaded.  The Stacking will lag, behind the camera at about 10sec per picture, So if doing 1 minute pictures at at 12minutes, you are viewing the first 10 images stacked.  The image updates about once a minute at the beginning of the sequence.

All images are unguided,  usually with 1 or 2 minutes duration, per image.   With unguided images, you can at expect to get about 20 minutes  of subs on an object before it drifts out of the field of view.  The last picture in each sequence is the full sequence,  is often beyond 20mins,  either because  my polar alignment was good  or I  re-centered the image.
