30 Jan 2015 - Whole Moon & some mosaics

[Bizibilder]

Clear and steady (and freezing!) last night so I was able to use the 2.5x Powermate on my ED120APO for some "large" mosaics.  Camera was my ASI120mm mono and each pane 300/2000 frames stacked in AS!2 and L-R Deconvolution in Astra Image 3.0.

First the full disc (without the Powermate) - a 6 pane mosaic:

Now with the Powermate - These images are large!! (When you open the Astrobin image click on the cross at top right for the full sized image)

The North West part showing almost maximum libration:

South polar region showing Clavius and Tycho well defined with shadows:

Finally a single pane showing Copernicus:

Very nice
