python 检测图像圆弧,使用python和opencv检测图像中的局部圆

I took about 220 images of the partial solar eclipse today and plan to put together a timelapse animation of the event. As expected the image of the partially eclipsed Sun jumps around a bit and I need to register the shots before making the animation.

Here are sample photos:

I would like to center the images on the Sun which is obviously a segment of a circle during the eclipse. I guess the Moon would be a distraction for the algorithm (I don't want to center on the Moon). I have some knowledge on Python and none on opencv.

Is there an easy way to find the Sun in the images and center it to approx. 1pixel accuracy? Is opencv + python the proper approach at all? Are there particular tricks to work out to get to the best result?

Thanks & Clear Skies,

Gert

You can try this:

threshold the image

get the largest co
