Moon 29-8-12

A bit late posting but I was having trouble with PSE 8 stitching the 66 panes together, anyway downloaded microsoft ICE which managed to do it apart from doing something odd in the bottom left corner.

Skywatcher 150p with TAL x2 barlow and philips spc900 webcam, 66 panes of about 1000 frames each stacked in registax.

Thats brilliant and with the same scope ive got, im going to have to learn how to image with my scope now.

Imaging is not really my thing, but when the moon's so bright it keeps me occupied .

Yes the brightness of the moon makes it a very easy target to image, its simple enough to get good results with a little patience.

It may be an easy target but stitching 66 panes together is not. Great image!

TBH the stitching together was done at the touch of a button with Microsoft ICE, my difficulty is having enough overlap to prevent holes.
