Mr Bergman Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Hello, since the weather is bad, I decided to reprocess old data from earlier this year, but with fewer subs. I didn´t have a clue which craters I had caught until I found Virtual Moon Atlas 6.0, which helped me navigate. A very nice freeware with a lot of options like distance measuring etc. Full image: http://www.astrobin.com/full/83917/B/ Virtual Moon Atlas: http://ap-i.net/avl/en/download/Erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Spock Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Very nice image with good contrast, sharpness and tonal range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruud Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 It's a really good image with perfect tones.I use the virtual Moon atlas with the texture "phase with dynamic relief". It will show the shadows of the cater walls as they change with the direction of the Sun.Here's your region in this texture (at about the right Lunar phase) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruud Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I forgot something: Some textures I had to download separately. Also, with the Phase With Dynamic Relief texture on, the program uses nearly a Gigabyte of memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vox45 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Very nice indeed.Virtual moon atlas is new to me, thanks for sharing nice tool and we should build a monument to Patrick Chevalley..."According to the programmer, Patrick Chevalley, it was released as freeware because "I’d rather see amateurs spend their money for a new eyepiece than for astronomy software".

Ruud Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 This is how the QuickMap website shows the same region: Link, picked up with the share option in QuickMapIt is a composite of pictures taken at Sunrise. Very useful for people who study regions near the terminator of a waxing Moon.To get this view, use these settings for the layers of the Map: Screenshot from QuickMapI think I prefer this over the Virtual Moon Atlas.
