Moon mosaic – Mewlon 180 and Canon 40D (+ colour saturated)

Hello,

Like Matt, I was outside last night battling some gusty winds in an attempt to generate a Moon mosaic using the Canon 40D with the Tak 1.6x Extender on the Mewlon 180 F12, giving an F19.2 system.

I had to shoot 6 panels to cover all the Lunar real estate, with very generous overlaps to give Photoshop CS4 something to work with. CS4 has amazing Auto-Align and Auto-Blend functions that made this mosaic very easy to produce.

I produced a B&W version (1600x1700) and a slightly smaller colour saturated (1516x1612) version.

Thanks for looking!

Cheers

Dennis
