a crater thing last night Aug 1st with the DMK

Hi All, seeing was poor last night, but I just received my new flip mirror so had to get out there... it works a treat and a bargain at ~$85AU.

Had a go at the moon with the 2.5x powermate and using a Green True Tech filter with the DMK firewire camera. 30fps and exposure of 1/94th sec and Gamma of 12. Gain in the 600s.(going from memory on the settings).

This is a crater, a big thing hit the moon a long time ago and made this very nice hole for me to look at.... don't know what it's called but my aint it purdy
