Hi Tom

Great detail in the image.  I adjusted the Hue/Saturation in Photoshop.  Is this more like the colour you were going for?

I love it, its the moon shot Austin Powers or Andy Warhol would hang on their walls, flat out love the second one.

Ha!  Yes   that the way I look at it..

Nice work Debo!  It defintely adds a bit of fun.  If we get enough we could make a SGL geological Atlas of the Mopon 

Another one!¬

A lot more....

SpaceX has licensing from the Federal Communications Commission to launch nearly 12,000 satellites if it wants

So, what do you think is the future for astrophotography?

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but this forum has a lot of sections!

Yes I know what you mean. The floor of clavius looks very smooth when it isn't in most images. Though on this one even without the NR it is featureless as the seeing was pretty poor... I've really struggled to get any fine detail that night

 

Which is why I keep coming back to Lunar/planetary imaging after all these years.  You can go out one night and that will be THE night of all nights!  

Yep, exactly Craig.  I know we are all trying to get the most of the data we have available, but sometimes reducing the noise reduction (or using no noise reduction) gives the impression of a more detaled image.  

Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment guys, much appreciated!  Here is a crop of the Copernicus/Kepler area from one of the above images:  looks like Jackson Polock had a go at the Moon!

Cheers

Fantastic, Craig.  Maybe a bit too much smoothing going on in these particular images?

Great work Jeff, a really nice set of images

Great job!  Do you have Photoshop?  Just one click with the Shadows/highlights tool does this.  If you don't like the result feel free to ignore my advice!

And another one from three days earlier.  I believe the colour fidelity of these images is very good and actually represents the enhanced colours of the Moon

Hi guys,  Hope you like!  There are a lot of coloured moons around...
