17th December IMGOH moon

Another from last night, same subject, same scope but different camera.

The scope was Meade 125EDT with the QHY IMGOH mono at prime focus.

This is a mosaic of 8 panes, each pane 800 from a 1000.

Its a little noisier than I usually like, I should have taken longer runs (about 2000 frames) but I was trying to get all panes in before a bank of cloud came over. In fact the cloud was just encroaching on the last part of the southern highland pane.

Still it was enjoyable taking and processing the image

Nice work Phil, some great detail showing.

Ta folks, I'm pleased with it. Had to do the mosaic manually as the panes wouldn't photomerge in PS.

Oh and the 125 is a typo, should be 127 doh  me and my sausage fingers

[Pete Presland]

Excellently done some very good detail showing.
