Clouds cleared enough for a quick shot of the Moon last night, after a less than promising start.


 


Canon 1100d on the Skymax 150, 2 single exposures stitched together with ICE.

That's a big Moon Paul! Still got the 150MAK then? Made a good job of that photo with it!! :)

Thanks Ron, Yes I've still got the MAK. It's a great for grab and go when mated to the AZ4.


 


When I saw it was clear, in 2 minutes I was set up and clicking away.

Nice results Paul, whilst the second image is a little more noisy it is a little sharper so I prefer the second image. Lots of nice detail. Surprising more people don`t image the full Moon as it is still an interesting target.

I find there is less room for adjustment in processing with a single exposure than with a stacked video.


 


You know me Mark, if it's in the sky I'll try and get a picture of it  :D
