Moon Fly Top View (600x Mag)

#1

Post by TheButcher »


Hey All,

Here is another one from Oct 6th. I was trying to make it look like you were flying over the moon. So I rotated my Camera to a part that would makeit look like it.

Captured in Firecapture and is made up of 5,000 frames and I used 10% of the best of them in Autostakkert. I then put it in Photoshop to do a little cleanup and then dropped into Registax6 bit of Wavelets, then back to Photoshop for completion.

Celestron C11
ZWO 290mm
iOptron CEM70
Antares 1.5x barlow
ZWO IR cut Filter
Rigel nStep Autofocuser

Thx for Looking :)

Wow. Makes me think of the Major Matt Mason action figures I had when I was a kid for some reason. :lol:
