Two new lunar images

[michaelmorris]

After a bit of a break from lunar imaging due to my house being rather tall and siutated to the south of the observatory, here are a couple of lunar images I captured on Thursday night in truly awful seeing. Both are the best 300 frames from 2000 frames captures. They were processed in Avistack, then initial sharpen in Registax 5, and final sharpening and tweaking in Photoshop.

Dear James

The Valentine Dome is the faint smooth raised structure just to the right of centre.

The framing is from Noel Carboni's Astonomy Tools v1.5 for Photoshop. The standard action that comes with the software has an even border all the way around. I wanted a deeper bottom section. I e-mailed Noel and he VERY rapidly (literally minutes!)knocked up a custom version of the action for me that had the requested deep base. The text is added manually for each image is in 'Technical' font.
