Failed Mosaic - Three Videos Failed to Stack

This is my first attempt at capturing the full surface of the sun which suffered from high level cloud affecting light gathering consistency and a great lack of experience on my part.

 

No matter how much I've played with balancing the contrast in the stacked images I can't level things out.

 

So I decided to give a go at some artificial colouring.

 

All original movies were in Ha shades of red that were then converted to shades of grey and coloured using Photoshop.

 

Equipment:

- Lunt 35mm Ha Solar Telescope

- Celestron NexImage 5

- Celestron x2 Barlow

- Celestron CG-5 mount

- Stacked using Registax 6

- Mosaic and post processing using Photoshop CC
