Hi Space,

You are doing well for a 15 year old. When I was 15 I could only dream of getting images like that!

Can't wait to see what you come up with as the years roll on

Hello, Space

I agree with Ken, yes – those are very nice images showing a lot of detail on the Moon. One or two of them look as if they are not quite sharply focused? How do you focus the C8 – is it by hand using the focus knob or do you have a motorised focuser attached.

You have produced some wonderful images for someone so young – congratulations! Not to mention your capture and processing abilities in using IRIS!

Cheers

Dennis
