Waxing gibbous moon with a RASA 11

[Fegato]

The moon is not really a classic RASA target, but when it's getting bright and is positioned near the milky way, other targets aren't working so well, so why not?  Not the resolution you can get with a better set up, but OK for a wide shot like this.

I've got 4 versions of this with different levels of colour saturation.  Depends what mood you're in, I suppose. Presented here are 1. a small push to saturation 2. over the top colours !

Just realised I didn't mirror these, or orient them...  thought it looked a bit strange. Will re-do...

Nice set,  I like the second one (mineral moon). I had a go at something similar last night with my RASA 8. I was getting bored as high level cloud was sporadic but frequent enough to interrupt my imaging plans so I pointed the scope to the Moon and just watched it on video   It was quite enjoyable just watching as the clouds drifted by it.
