Good seeing has been announced and so I took my chance on the up to 65° high Moon. Transparency not the best, but at least the seeing has been good.

Title: 142parts (!) mosaic of the first quarter Moon

Description: I know...it's insane - and I had not planned it that way. I wanted to use the 174MM camera with 4,8 times larger sensor area than the 462MM I in the end had to use, but the 174 showed a very strange behavior under Sharp Cap Pro, so I did not have much of a choice.
My computer worked the whole afternoon for that 13524 x 7020px (original) large 142parts mosaic which I'm showing here reduced to 5000px and still here you can zoom in and make out such small craters like Armstrong, Collins and Aldrin.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
