The moon 6-7 days after new moon

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

For the full picture I stacked 15% of frames acquired during 60 s @ 132 FPS and native focal length. Stacking in Autostakkert and wavelet sharpening in Registax. Mosaic of three frames stitched in ICE. Videos acquired around 22:00 - 22:45 which in my case means more or less full daylight. Seeing as I was able to judge it was rather poor. Altitude of the moon approximately 14 degrees above the horizon. For the Theophilus crater image I used a Celestron 3x barlow lens and stacked 10% of frames.

Title: Mare Serenitatis, mountain ranges and small crater Linné

Description: This image contains Mare Serenitatis, and the mountain ranges Montes Caucasus and Montes Appeninus. However, my goal with the image was to see if I could detect the very small crater Linné. This crater is known as a difficult object and has been the source of controversy during the pre-photographic era of the 19th century. It was somtimes seen changing shape and size and was sometimes considered as an indication of geological activity on the moon. It is just barely detectable on my image to the right of the opening in the mountian range.. The Virtual Moon Atlas states the apparent size of the object to be 1.1".

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.
