Description

Again I found myself admiring a beautiful waning gibbous moon last night when I was finishing an imaging session of a DSO.

I just could not resist doing something with it... so here are a couple of different shots. I was experimenting a little bit with frame rates, regions of interest, gain, and exposure. Of some interest, perhaps, is that the original image and rev. C are the same image. The original was drizzled 3x in AS!! and rev. C was upsampled 2x.

Although this particular instrument/camera combination is not ideal for lunar imaging, I do like the results.

As always, comments/criticism always welcome and Clear Skies!

Mike
