Description

I had limited time available last night and the primary objective was to calibrate PHD2. After successful calibration, I looked at the area of the sky with the widest expanse available from the setup and the moon dominated the view. I decided to get my first LRGB image of the moon.

I forgot to refocus as I changed filters. It seems the filters are reasonably parfocal. In addition FFTRegistration in PixInsight helped with the alignment and may have helped minimize focus errors.
