Morning Moon 21-09

[johnfosteruk]

Up early this morning at about 5am before work to catch the moon at a decent altitude and continue my sequence. The clouds taunted me but I finally captured some close up at about 6am with the barlow which was quite a challenge. I think I'd have been better off just taking the full disk though as it was less than perfect conditions and I'm not too pleased. It's quite noisy but it's got some detail, it was also underexposed and took some careful work to tease out the details. It's one to add to my sequence despite the challenges.

Just noticed the error, should say 70% illuminated. Will edit tomorrow.
