These are very nice Rhoda. The moon has to be the most photogenic object in the sky...so many faces...so many expressions.
Thank you.

Rhoda :sprefac:
Veeery nice. I particular like how you treated these Lunar photos with respect to the luminance levels. I believe what you've done closely approximates the .12 albedo of the Moon but I'm probably not telling you are anyone else here anything yall didn't already know. I'm slowly accumulating single-frame lunar images myself in a library file I've created on my desktop. This winter or next spring I might get around to stakking a few of the strings I've already captured. I haven't done video capture yet. My main interests lie in single-frame imaging of DSO, however. But if and when I do get around to stakking lunar images, you will be one of my main reasons, along with DonQuixote, for doing so earlier rather than later! Thanks for sharing.
