moon which is better

[xtreemchaos]

heres 2 moons the april on taken with AR127L scope the second august with 200p ,whats best to image the moon you decide i cant make my mind up. clear skys charl.

I prefer the August Moon...I like silvery-grey, plus there seems (on my monitor) less fringing on the lower right. And I like seeing more of Mare Crisium

Nice, thx for posting.

ghostdance-thanks for your kind remarks, i do agree the colour with the newt is better and no ca. thanks again clear skys charl

[Tonynexevo925]

Both good images but prefer August as the colours look great and make it seem sharper to my eyes (on iPhone so may be wrong

[Moon-Watcher]

It is difficult, but its the "Blue" moon for me.  The crater top right (sorry, am hopeless on moon places) is far more detailed than the April pic.

Superb images.  Thanks for posting...

Sorry to put a spoke in the wheel but I prefer the April one. Looks more natural (to that seen from Chez-moi anyway).

Here is a quick one off shot from the other night for comparison.

JamesF- thanks mate .clear skys.charl.

The 200p is sharper by a small margin, and the 127l shows more CA than i would expect, but i am not soon keen on the blue colour, i would like to see the 200p image reprocessed 

[xtreemchaos]

nightfisher- thanks for you comments mate, il run it through again and see if i can get something inbetween. thanks again. charl.

[xtreemchaos]

heres the repro

[davefrance]

I like that much better than the blue tinge, much more natural to me.

[xtreemchaos]

dave- thanks for the coments, ive just replaced it again this ones got a tiny bit of blue because when i lowered it right down it did strange things to the background, i think its because the moon had a fair bit of blue in it that night but i could allways do it b/w. thanks again charl.

[xtreemchaos]

heres black n white , i think i like this best.

[laudropb]

Nice comparison. Not sure which I like but comparing the libration between them shows the differences very well.

[xtreemchaos]

laudropb- thanks mate, im trying to get to grips with taking astro pics after mainly vis for years, theres so much to take in. thanks again.clear skys. charl.

[nightfisher]

Yep, this last one is rather nice indeed
