Moon 91.4% (+) - A mineral Copernicus-area, with a paint-can dropped on Aristarchus

As part of the first test-runs to get the C11 EHD operational for DSO (see previous posts related to the moon test-mosaic and NGC 3718), I also had a quick test run-on Copernicus. A short video, not enough frames for stacking to yield the fine details, seeing below par, but a nice capture to get some data in during these cloud-cast weeks

In the mineral processing, the bright-lit areas get the colours ‘over-stretched’. The result on the crater-rims of Aristarchus is quite similar to, like @Tom Gray had so nicely put it, having had a paint-can dropped on it (Couldn’t have described it any better)

Just a quick test-run, in long waiting for Clear Skies … or kingdom come, whichever might be sooner …

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
