"G'Day All: Please find attached a stereo image and an animation made from the VMC images of 29 August 2008. The 'mysterious artefact' is a cloud - but you knew that anyway."

"The images were converted from RAW format to BMP using ImageJ, sharpened the images individually using wavelet adjustment in Registax (a wavelet correction of 10 in the 5:1 layer, and 30 in the 6:1), then finally assembled the anaglyph in The GIMP (see this link for a tutorial)."

"For the animation, I used the sharpened images from above, and manually aligned them using the 'difference' layer function in the GIMP, then used the GIMP animation function on the aligned layers."
