Moon Mosaic from 2019 01 14

8in Saxon Collapsible Dob.
Logitech 120 Webcam, 15.6ms exposure.
About 325 seconds of video which was turned into 65 stills.
To make this image I first captured a video, using SharpCap, by letting the moon drift past my eye piece, repeat until I think I've got all the moon. Then chopped the videos up into 5 second chunks, using ffmpeg. Using AutoStakkert turn these videos into images. Windows Image Composite Editor was then used to stitch the stills together. I tried using Hugin, but the images turned out dark, Then I tried using the Gimp and manually lining up the images, this was a lot of work for an not as good as this image.
