I don't like the moon, however...

I've been out lately to capture some galaxies, but with the moon in the neighborhood faint objects are easily washed out. So in desperation I pointed my scope to the culprit. 20 images at 800 ISO 1/500sec stacked with Registax 6.

The moon is always a satisfying target !

I was out last night with my Skyliner 200P,  taking pics of the moon and Jupiter... but using my iPhone, which is passable lol but I really need to borrow my Dad's SLR to achieve anything like your fantastic photo!

Great pictures well done.

Forgive me, but I'm happy you were 'in desperation' ...

Thanks.

Good job nonetheless pulling detail from a bright phase. WOOHOO

I should thank you all for your kind comments. I have the scope now for just under 2 month and I must say, I'm loving it. I always thought you need longer focal lengths to get good pictures of the moon.

Thanks again and clear skies (something we don't have at the moment).
