Description

Pretty good transparency but strong wind and turbulent air like clear water flowing over the lunar surface, but I compensated for this with 5ms short exposure time (170fps). So far so good.

The moon disk image is a quick mosaic of eight panels taken with a 0.5x reducer (FL=≈1000mm at F5). All images are in mono8, 10-bit ADC and 1.5x drizzled. The images in the revision are taken without reducer at native focal length.

The western wall of Plato looks great when the moon is waning and the sunlight coming from the west.


Let me open a little secret. The image here:

is no magic and no work at all, it is merely an inverted image of this one:
