First lunar attempts from the 12th of April

[Whippy]

I didn't fancy spending all night doing DSO's so Tuesday gave me the opportunity to break out the webcam to try out a spot of lunar fun. Good fun too! I can get used to this!

Nailing focus was definately the hardest part, especially the Moon boiling away as it was but I'm hooked, that's for sure .

Imaged through an ED120 with a TAL x3 barlow, just a standard Philips 880 flashed cam with an IR/UV cut filter in the eyepiece using sharpcap for capture. Stacked in Registax and played about with in Photoshop.

Copernicus:

Plato:

Goldschmidt & friends:

And a part I haven't been able to identify. If anyone knows, let me know!:
