67 pane Gibbous Waning Moon

Here's my latest lunar mosaic from the morning of 6th September. 67 panes shot through a red filter between 12.50 and 2.30am. Followed by several hours of processing and manually stitching together using photoshop. I'm still knackered two days later.

how do you get your focus so sharp?

Practice I guess. I use an electric focuser which reduces the chance of the image wobble you'd usually get by direct contact with the focusing knob. But you still have to know where the right focus sweet spot is, but using 2 buttons on a handset instead of twiddling a focuser. Plus seeing was pretty good that night and the red filter really helps the clarity on the final captures.

Thanks for the comments all. :smiley:
