SPX350 F19.9 with 3xTV Barlow, EQ6, DMK21AF, Astrodon red filter.
900 of 3600frames stacked with AviStack/Regx5 wavelets and PS.
Some better images here, Mare Hunboldtianum which was fully librated usually is not visible in the top right part of Moon. Crater Humboldt only partially librated but first time I have imaged this, not a brilliant image but shows the rilles and cliff walls, this crater is usually unseen on the limb. Limb craters always give a landers eye view which is popular.
Posidonius shows close detail with crater rilles and finally dark Hadley with Aristillus and Autolycus with mountain peaks and crater edges illuminated.
Thanks for looking, John.

John,
Breathtaking photos. Sure you weren't actually flying around up there taking photos?? That first one gives me the impression you were looking out of a spacecraft flying by :lol:. Just shows the skill in your ability to capture such a terrific shot.
Well done and look forward to seeing more lunar images.:thumbsup: I'm stuck on DSLR prime photography for now until I build up more practise and skills.
Cheers,
Darrin...

A nice selection John but IMHO your first image is the standout, exceptional, a superb rendition indeed.

Thanks all, Mare Humboldtianum is a beautiful sight we dont often get but it has been on my list for some time and shows a faint ghost crater on its flooded floor.
Hausen/Bailly craters are also on the list but to get the full libration and a clear night when moon is available is subject to luck but I will be waiting.
Regards, John.

A resolution Fantastic.:eyepop::eyepop::eyepop:: eyepop::eyepop::eyepop::eyepop::eye pop:
You have pushed so much your perspective, congratulations.
What work have mirrors?
Obstruction?
Would you say the weight of the 350 you have?
Thanks, and really compliments.
