Thanks Ryan, David and Andy
Yeh pretty happy with this Omega considering the highly illuminated sky and backyard ( neighbours exterior lights left on again in both sides ) I’m finding under these conditions you need so much more data. I was going to try and push on and capture 180 to 200 subs but tiredness got the best of me plus my roofline was looming. Startools does a great job of cleaning up all the noise gradient and vignetting, leaves you with a nice clean image to stretch and process

Thanks for the comments
This is probably the worst lunar image I’ve posted.( I said to myself will I or won’t I image the moon as it wasn’t far away from Omega, should have chosen the latter ) I rarely image a full moon as it’s just to damn bright with a DSLR to focus.If you drop your ISO and exposure you still don’t get any contrast on the craters to define your fine focus, there needs to be a shadow. I used the thin outer edge half craters on the top side but not enough to nail tight focus.When the moon is down to around 80% I can focus on some bigger craters near the terminator and nail tight focus every time as BYEOS is tremendous on live view at 5x or 10x zoom with my DSLR
Thanks again guys !
