Drop of Moon

[Drop Of Sun]

Hi, I think I will follow Blazar and CatLuc's example and post my lunar images in one thread. I sometimes process just one or two shots and don't get around to posting them so I hope this thread will encourage me to try and process regularly even if it's a single image. I've decided regular processing is my belated New Year's resolution! Thanks for looking!

First one is Plato with Edge 8, ASI174 camera and Tele Vue 2x Barlow, stacking about 1000 out of 8,500 or so frames in Autostakkert. I normally use a Red Longpass filter but this time I used no filter, it was foggy/misty and I wondered if that would give stable conditions and would be fine without filter, advantage in my head being a brighter image so less gain required. Whether that was a good idea or not, I don't know!
