High Resolution Lunar Imaging

[MarkRadice]

I hope this is of use! As a keen lunar imager I published a tutorial describing my approach to high resolution lunar imaging.

Using a high speed camera we record thousands of frames through the turbulence of the atmosphere and then use free software to reject those blurred by poor seeing and stack the sharpest ready for wavelet sharpening.

This approach allows the telescope to perform at its best despite the best efforts of the seeing and resulted in an image in this year's Astrophotography of the Year competition.

This process, although needing tailoring, will work with any set up that records frames or videos. 

Any questions or comments then let me know - although I cannot help with the constant grey skies.

Thank you, Jim, that's very kind of you.

In the meantime, I hope your skies are clearer than mine!
