Later Moon shot March 23rd

#1

Post by Baurice »


I was overdue for a really good lunar imaging session. I had been pleased with my efforts with my DSLR but had hardly used my telescope all year. The Moon was high in the south west and well-placed from our conservatory to take some images without straining my hips, shoulders or back.

It was a shame that my Bresser Electronic Eyepiece was functionally challenged, so I decided to do one set of shots with my Mak and DSLR. I took 20 frames at 1.54m focal length, ISO 100 and 1/100 second exposure and stacked the best 18.
