1st 1/4 Moon from Mt Coot-tha
Had a good night with the BAS team for our monthly public viewing at Mt Coot-tha, Brisbane. A large friendly crowd enjoyed the views available through the various scopes on site. Lots of familes and a group from one of the Universities with Astro Physicists to answer questions.
This is my best imaging effort for the International Observe the Moon Night. Sat 22nd Sept.
I am having a bit of trouble keeping the detail sharp near the Moon's limb. I don't think it will be possible to improve on this until I invest in a more advanced imaging setup. Any comments on how to improve this image gratefully accepted.
