ISS - and moon, first light zwo2600mc

[rustigsmed]

hi all,

this was my first go at the ISS, pretty happy considering the conditions, and being my first go. Next time i will sacrifice some sensor space for higher fps for sure. Also was pleasantly surprised to get this nice moon yesterday too, jetstream was boiling (and it showed on saturn and jupiter - not worth posting).

Great work Russell.

Really like the extra dimension of the extra colour saturation on the moon.

Congratulations on the new camera - I'm in love with mine. :lol:

thanks Dennis - can't believe it has taken me this long! but i'm much more confident now to be able to get it in view with a tighter FOV /higher fps.



thanks Pete - yeah i was really happy with the moonage - i figure i've got the colour camera I may as well show the colour! I think it works better than combining RGB on a mono camera - i found it a bit troublesome to get it exactly aligned with a alt-az mount.

clear skies :thumbsup:

Cool shot, I've not ever captured at any decent scale you can see the outline of the iss do congrats. The moon is a big pizza pie where you can make your own flavours. There is a special blend in there somewhere which you will end up settling on as your style. Lol osc rule.....
