Atik Waxing Moon, 31st Jan 2013

Hi All,

I was mucking around the other night and thought I might try the Atik CCD on the moon when it rose to see what it is like on planetary.

I left the CLS filter on, but this sent the histogram towards red as I think there is a lot of Infrared bouncing off the Moon's surface from the sunlight.

So, here is some of Luna as the Atik 314L+ sees it through my Skywatcher 200mm reflector on the HEQ5 Pro.

120 x 0.008sec subexposures (8/1000ths of a sec each), captured in Artemis Capture, stacked in Registax 6 and processed in PS CS3 and Nebulosity 3.

Cheers

Chris
