It's a massive, massive, file. I'm on broadband and it's taken over a minute and still loading.

[iceman]

woah it's 21 meg!

[iceman]

meh, it's a kinda disappointing image.

[h0ughy]

yes its a large file but i would say its an outstanding shot. Other IIS members have had cracker jack shots, without the size!!

saved me downloading it, thanks guys :)

The stitching is not the best. The focus on the limb at full size is way out. There is little available contrast. Other than that it's certainly OK.

Thanks for the link though John! The last thing we want to do is discourage people from is finding stuff and telling us about it. ")

I only downloaded half of it, as it was fairly disappointing. It's not bad but I have seen better especially from the IIS community.

:thumbsup:

Yeah not that impressed actually !!

[Striker]

Only enjoyment was it took 14 seconds to download the image on ADSL2...it was deleted 2 seconds later.

Seen much nicer here.

Thats plenty of evidence not to look at the image...cheers Kev.

This one (http://www.astronomie.be/bart.declercq/FullMoon_20080914_processed.jpg) I found on cloudy nights is only 23 megapixels, but gee its got some detail... the previous shot in this thread was unfortunately a 23mb let down, this file is worth seeing... and I mean WORTH!!! seeing.
