Re: [meteorite-list] Gigapan and Barratta Thin Section
Aloha Count - and all... Just had a look at both the xpol and regular light. I think what we have there is - first of all, an area with no material except the adhesive used to adhere the rock to the slide - And, within that area, some bubbles in the adhesive. Now - in the xpol image, the artifacts are in the same location as the bubbles - so, I agree, they are likely to be reflections... If you look at other areas, top left, and a few other "empty" spaces - you can find other bubbles, and other reflections. Now to see if they are in the higher magnification images :-) Cheers - ted --- On Sun, 9/19/10, countde...@earthlink.net wrote: > From: countde...@earthlink.net > Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Gigapan and Barratta Thin Section > Date: Sunday, September 19, 2010, 10:56 AM > Good on ya..

Re: [meteorite-list] Gigapan and Barratta Thin Section
Good on ya.. Ted! Bob has been talking about this for quite awhile. He wasn't exaggerating about how super the images are...and will only be sharper as you perfect the process. I notice on the 59099 image that in the upper right hand corner there is a large black inclusion that sports some artifacts that look like light reflections. Do you know what they are?

Re: [meteorite-list] Gigapan and Barratta Thin Section
Hi Ted, Great ideaamazing shots and wonderful to be able to pan around zooming in and out on all that detail. Look forward to seeing more.

[meteorite-list] Gigapan and Barratta Thin Section
Aloha - In concert with Bob Walker - of Queensland, and the person who takes the thin section images for him, I figured that, a series of images of a thin section could be stitched together using GigaPan, and presented for your enjoyment. These two are the first attempts, and are using the 20x image set. When I have some more free time :-) the 50x set will get stitched together, For those who haven't played with gigapan images, The cool part is you can do some serious zooming! since the overall image is made up of a number of high resolution images, the potential is good. In these cases, 16 images were joined up to make a 120MB image. The focus still needs to be worked on. That's over at the original image side of things :-) I hope the 50x ones are a bit crisper! If all goes well, we'll start a whole series of these! I'm looking forward to it. cheers - Ted Brattstrom Barratta - L4 (Handy Hint - Launch the Full Screen Viewer) xpol http://gigapan.org/gigapans/59099/ Normal http://gigapan.org/gigapans/59098/ __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
