Description

This is a 6-panel, grayscale mosaic image of the moon taken with my QSI 660 ws camera. I used a 7nm OIII filter to cut down on the brightness of the moon and to improve focus. Exposures were 0.1 second, and I took 15 to 20 frames of each panel, discarding any blurry frames. Seeing was average.

Registration and stacking were done in Registax 6.

Lucy-Richardson deconvolution and wavelet sharpening were performed in AstraImage 3.0.

The panels (TIFF files) were combined in Microsoft ICE.

Finally, the curves were adjusted in GIMP 2.9 (development version).
