Hi guys,
I had never actually photographed full moon, so decided it was time. although not fully full, its close enough...
the moon didn't fit in the field of view so I had to attempt a stitch job - which I had read about a long time ago from Mike's how to in the iceinspace project section).
I stacked 10 shots of the two parts of the moon (to be honest, one of the 10 lot shots was 95% of the moon while the other 10 were about 50% the FOV) .
Didn't have to download a stitching program either, Microsoft live photogallery took care of it very easily.
Here's 3 versions with varying degrees of saturation.
Slight sharpening in the most saturated version, apart from that, no wavelets or other processing. if I try and saturate it more then some halo-ing occurs near the top of the image, infact you can just see it in the most saturated version, something to do with my camera being not quite write after astro modding.
any comments / tips welcome.
thanks for looking
Cheers
Rusty
