daylit and nighttime moon 09-10-16

Lovely clear skies this afternoon and this evening so got one of each and a high res down the terminator with the 2.5x barlow.

Had a beggar of a time processing the daylit moon, brain stopped working but I got there in the end, thanks for the screenshots Charl 

no darks or flats on the hi res and it shows at fully full size. Also the 3 panes aren't fully blended for levels etc but I'm pleased enough for a quickie.  Rupes Recta stands out nicely which goes along with the visual views I had too.

A very pleasant PM it was too

I do love a mosaic Aaron, can't wait until I pull my finger out and get a decent planetary cam, the mosaics won't stop then!!!

Thanks Yamez, I was a bit gutted that I didn't have time to do darks and flats as the hi res was an afterthought before packing up but there's always next time.

Thanks Baggy, or is it Mr Wrinkle??

Cheers Neil, I could image the moon every day if only she'd stay in one spot and the clouds would stay away. So much to marvel over.

Thanks Charl, do you know I'm not even sure what settings I had wrong now but it was coming out a noisy mess, anyhoo preset now saved so won't be an issue again
