20.7 waning Moon 03:00 22nd August 2019

The Moon this morning at 03:15 to 04:00 BST 20.7 days waning.

Seeing was 4-5 on the Damian Peach scale and a high mist at the start.

As I have had to send my LX850 handset off for repairs so I used my 9.25 SCT on the Evolution mount.

Cameras were the Canon 650D as a 2 pane mosaic for the whole shot and the Altair GP290M for the detailed shots.

I was worried if I tried 5000 frames there would be too much image rotation as the Evolution is an AZ mount.

Each image was 2000 frames and between 25 -70% of the best frames stacked in Autostakert, wavelets in Registax and finsihed with PhotoShop.

The GP290 is a very very good camera
