      280 consecutive images to create solar time lapse animation

      Dataset includes 280 TIFFs. Each TIFF was created from a 500 frame video captured 15 seconds apart. The result is 280 images that represent about 90 minutes of activity on the Sun. If you process each TIFF and combine them in a video program like iMovie you can create a time lapse video. You will need to align the frames in ImPPG and can choose to delete any that are relatively blurry due to transient poor seeing. My example from this data can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q08qhyJ5e4

      I have a video on my YouTube channel @azastroguy that explains the process in detail.

      Seeing varied over the 90 minutes. Mostly 4/5.
