A stunning set of images Neil. As you Know I am very partial to close up images of the moon.

Thanks. I dont normally take lunar like this. Close ups with a colour camera that is. Was more a after thought after jupiter to be honest. With the daylight and rubbish seeing. A bit soft maybe. But still quite natural and showing a fair amount. So was enjoyable taking them none the less. You can see the contrast washout no doubt. But unusual lighting can still be interesting maybe ? Thanks again

Some nice crater relief captures

Would an IR only filter have helped with the seeing?

Yes which is what i would normally do. I would normally use my zwo mono 178 with IR 685. But just thought it would be interesting to try in colour with the ADC still attached.  As I said more a after thought after capturing jupiter.
