Moon 3/26

#1

Post by prowler75 »

Hi Friends!

I've been wanting to get spend some quality time with my telescopes, but with the moon at 93% and humid conditions anything involving DSOs was out. So I settled on spending a little time with the moon. I ended up shooting a couple of hundred photos with my Canon T7i and my 127mm refractor. I haven't done much processing of the photos yet other than some quick adjustments in Adobe Camera Raw on a couple of frame. Here is my first sample from tonight's fun.

Thanks everyone! I want to try and stack some of the images together and see if I can tease out a little more detail. That should give me something to play around with for the next few days. :lol:

A stack of all those would be a nice sight indeed! And Jim (Juno16) is right; Camera Raw is really good! Since trying that, for me Registax has taken such a back seat...

Well done Craig, and good to hear from you :D

All the best,
Mark
