First Luna DMK shot
Seeing was atrocious last night, 1/10 if I was lucky. I tried RGB imaging on Jupiter, but was sorely disappointed at the fuzzball I saw.
I reduced focal length until I ended up using a 2x barlow on the moon to compensate for the poor seeing.
Here's the result of the effort. A 3-image mosaic centered on Clavius, with Moretus in frame above and left, and tycho down below to the right.
The image was taken at 30fps, which sometimes works and most of the time doesn't. But I've got a routine to switch between pause/stop until I get the preview showing, and then I can start recording. Frustrating, but it'll do for now.
10" dob on EQ platform
DMK21AF04 with baader IR block
30fps for 1 minute on each of the 3 areas. Approx 60 frames of each avi stacked, joined together in photoshop, then LR deconvolution in AstraImage, and then save to web.
Pretty happy with the results considering the seeing, and not a bad first luna light for the DMK.
Thanks for looking.
