Re: [APML] A Different View of Venus' Atmosphere?

["Dale Ireland" <direland@drdale.com>]

There are three types of atmosphere shots I have seen. 

One is basically unmanipulated shots that are very over exposed for the Sun
but show the atmospheric ring.
Second are combinations of long exposures and short to keep the solar disk
looking normal and also show the ring.
Third are heavily stretched and processed short exposures that show the Sun
properly exposed but have been worked on to bring out the ring.
I think quite a few of the third type have used way too much edge sharpening
and unsharp mask to produce a "pseudo-ring" where none was visible or
actually photographed.

Just my opinion

Dale
