That is a really nice image Jen. I compared it to my first attempt from a few months ago. I have a long way to go before getting close to this, or posting any images on IIS. If I could achieve this standard I would be over the moon as well. :thumbsup:

:D:D:D thanks Stu :thumbsup: i was a little scared to put it up on IIS too :lol: but that is how i will learn, all the pics i have done so far have always just been one shot pics ;) so im pretty happy with this one as OMG this registax and photoshop thing just does my head in :rolleyes: :rofl::rofl:

Nice Moon Jen, well done :) It was near perigee so it almost fills the frame exactly on the 500D and 12" Dob.

That's really very good Jen. As a dedicated moon photographer I can say that contrast at near-full moon is a killer to photograph well. You quickly lose all manner of detail. You've done well here to keep a great deal of it! Excellent work. :thumbsup:

[Jen]

:D:D:D well thank you Chris :)

:) Fantastic work Jen, woo-hooooooo.

See those little bumps at the edge of the Moon just right of the bottom, and at the right hand side? They are Mountains showing up against the dark sky :thumbsup:
