Description

Usually when we started in astrophotography our first target is the Moon. Our old Moon is generous because it performs well even in the most modest instruments. A simple bezel of 60mm and a phone already allows for interesting photos.

But shooting the moon in high resolution requires good openings, proper collimation and a dedicated camera but still is not a difficult job since the photo is not close to the terminator.

But in fact are the photos that reveal the terminator good lunar photographers as they require a large area and adequate control of light both at the time of capture, as in the further processing.

Here in this picture have Gassendi exactly the terminator and with the sun in extremely low angle the floor relief stands out stunning way. His rhymes are usually very evident but with the sun so we can see clearly how uneven the floor of this remarkable crater.

I hope this picture will serve as a challenge to colleagues to improve themselves increasingly.
