Copernicus &co - a few more lunar close-ups

A few lunar shots from the past week I hadn't shared yet. Some nice clear and stable conditions in Sydney allowing for some high res long fl lunar shots. Probably some of the most stable sky I've had for lunar shots this year - the view of Copernicus through the binoviewers in those 'stable moments' was very close to the final image posted here -enough to have me exclaiming out loud on a number of occasions

I tried to keep the exposure low as the surface brightness was difficult to contend with, and was happy to reveal some additional detail without blowing out the highlights.

Bullialdus/Kies &co,
Copernicus,
Rupes Recta/Birt/Rima Birt.

All taken with c14 (non edge) @f11 with asi178mm (IR685 filter)
Thanks for looking!
