First Moon Colour

My first attempt at pulling some colour out of my moon images. PIPP to AutoStakkert and finally Photoshop to pull the colour through.

Celestron Nexstar 5SE + Canon 70D

Thank you.
Never realised how much colour was hiding in these images.

What a fantastic capture! Many regular folk don't realise that the moon has a little colour to it. Samples of orange soil where taken from the Taurus-Littrow region (1/5 across 2/3 down in your image) by Apollo Astronauts. Apparently it caught their eye amongst the rest of the colourless lunar surface. From a distance it probably looked a little like gold.

Never knew that. Always good when you can learn something.
