Kon Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I took some singles frames of the moon with my Don and Nikon on prime focus. 23 frames iso 200, exposure 1/100 and stacked in siril and some editing in gimp. The viewing was amazing tonight! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimboman Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 HI Kon Nice picture, I spent some time looking at the moon tonight using my etx90 with a binoviewer and a pair of 20mm eyepieces. Although been a fan of astronomy for50 plus years I have not done any serious astrophotography wished I had done now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being new in the hobby I had to google what V and X meant🌛! I can see them now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Vader Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I'm still quite new myself and last night was the 1st time I've seen them. Keep an eye out for the Golden, or Jewelled handle when the terminator reaches the Jura mountains on Mare Imbrium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Vader Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I think we need a "dislike" button for clouds 🙂 The terminator looks to be close to the Jura mountains tomorrow evening. Worth a look, clouds permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
