Hi
I decided to get up early and take some images of the waning Moon - here is one that I like the composition of - the image is average due to the average conditions and my skill no doubt - it shows Tycho and its rays shooting to the top left.
Meade LX90 8" with DMK31 and some Registax5.
I hope to post some more later on - off to work now!

Nice work Matt - looks like the seeing was really against you.
The moon did look lovely this morning.

Nice pic.
Is it a single shot or multiple?

Hi Jeanette

It is about 300 out of 3000 images stacked in Registax. Conditions were quite challenging and I do not think I will have any data that will produce a great pic.

Next time - maybe not from 3-4am thought - I am very tired now!!!!!!!
