A few lunarscapes from 5th August

After managing to take a deep sky series for Djorg 2, I decided against a meridian flip and instead, replaced the Tak x0.8 Reducer with a TeleVue x2 Powermate, to record some images of the fast rising Moon.

The seeing wasn't quite up to the x2 Powermate, but once I down-sampled the images, they scrubbed up quite nicely.

I have noticed that on the Mewlon 210 with the x2 Powermate and ASI1600MM camera field of view, the edges do suffer a little, although this is as expected from a DK Cassegrain design.

Cheers

Dennis
