Ptolemaeus, Tycho, Triesnecker & Clavius

Hi

Yawn - zzzzzz.....had another productive early morning with the Moon. The seeing was very good at times, but not good enough to capture the rille in the Alpine Valley. I did manage to image Ptolemaeus, Tycho, Triesnecker & Clavius as follows, before falling asleep at the hand paddle!

Equipment details:
Celestron C9.25
TeleVue x2.5 PowerMate
Philips ToUcam
Takahashi EM200 mount
JMI NGFS motofocus

Imaging details:
Acquired with K3CCDTools
1800 frame
1/25 sec
10fps
Stacked withRegistax3
Finished in Corel PhotoPaint

The stacks were as follows:
Ptolemaeus - 526, Tycho - 519, Triesnecker - 742 & Clavius - 316.

Still a long way to go before catching up to Bird's Theophilus, but an enjoyable session none-the-less.

Cheers

Dennis
