Moon with undriven mount

[Luke]

This is an image using my new simplified moon imaging setup, of a 66mm refractor and undriven mount.

I let the moon drift across the webcam and took 1,000 frames. I wasn't going to image on this night, but the moon was looking good and it only takes me about 5 minutes to be up and imaging with this setup

That's awesome! Not many widefield shots go that well!

Thanks, folks, I think I'll be getting a lot of usage out of this setup. It makes getting the whole disc very convenient
