Moon 22/01/18

Hi All,
Im just learning to use registax and getting use to my set up to take pics.
Steep learning curve.
This is the moon from last night it was not dark yet as the moon is low in the west. About 2000 stacked images and using registax for the first time this was my end result.
My set up is my Edge 8" in my observatory on a wedge. The camera 600D
I used a reducer making the shot at F7. And the seeing was very poor, but the moon was above my house so I suggest a lot of heat haze from the tin roof.
Im learning EAA so its a long road.

Some links to pics of my observatory, https://www.flickr.com/gp/160980344@N04/F3nyx4


Regards,
David.
