Full moon with 12" QDD

[geppetto]

Took a few afocal shots with the QDD and Nikon 5400 with 40mm eyepiece.

The extra aperture seems to help in getting some detail from the bright full moon,

something I find difficult to get right.

Anyway, quite pleased with the results

Nice one Phil. When can I come around to pick the scope up?

It makes it worthwhile that the mirrors are seeing a bit of action at long last. They'd been wasting away at my house for far too long.

Phil

great pics.

That scope is a brillinat piece of kit ( & the Nikons good too )

Took a fow pic of Luna myself tonight as the Moonlight and mist made faint double measurements impossible.

Cheers
