Description

At the beginning of an imaging session I like to use the Moon to dial in focus and shakedown equipment in use for the night. This image was taken in the day time a few hours before dusk with no polar alignment etc. The atmospheric conditions didn't look great but every now and then I could see some good detail. Using AstroSurface a bit more and really liking the ease of use. Processing is at best 10 minutes. The mages probably deserve a bit more attention but wanted to show some friends what I'd imaged while actually talking with them.
