Moon from Friday

[Stardust]

I swapped scopes in the obsy to try for the Moon.

This is a 3 pane panorama taken with my Fuji XT-1 & Meade 127 refractor with a 2x barlow

First bit of imaging for absolutely months!

Nice Moon David, months ? seems more like years, I thought you'd given up astronomy and taken up stamp collecting

Hi Dave. almost given the weather i've had over the past 2 years. I bought on old sct to test and realised it has been on the mount for 18 months and I've only had 3 or 4 images with it. That's shocking, but I have another hobby which I've spent more time on. It was nice to get out there last week though. I should see if the quark still works, the itf on my solarmax is shot so need to replace that.

It's a nice one. Very crisp!

Thank you Ruud. it was more of a test of the Fuji camera but the scope does give a lovely image.
