HDR Enhanced Photo of the Sun's Corona

Here is my first HDR (High Dynamic Range) image of the eclipse.  This image  was a 9 exposure bracketed run of images ranging from 1/4 sec to 1/1000 sec at ISO200 designed to bring out the subtlety of the sun's corona (shows approximately what the human eye was able to see).

All images were taken with a Canon 50D attached to a William Optics 102mm APO refractor mounted on an iOptron iEQ30 mount.  The processing was accomplished with PixInsight and Paint Shop Pro.
