A few DMK Moon shots

Thought I'd capture these ahead of going for Mars a little later tonight.

DMK21AF04.AS, R Astronomik filter, 2.5x Powermate, C9.25.

MAP and minimal wavelets in R4...levels and curves in PS7.

It's a challenge trying to get the dynamic range under control.

Very happy with the detail in the Alpine Valley shot. Have never captured the rille which runs along its floor before

Great work Matt, excellent images. The alpine valley is especially good.

Is there a reason you cropped copernicus? Was it not centered, or not sharp off-centre?

Thanks Mike.

Re: Copernicus: it wasn't centred, and looked worse after I'd rotated it in R4 to achieve a nice angle.

Cheers.

Hi Matt

Yeah, your 1st Alpine Valley “inner rille” capture – what a cracker, no doubt at all there! Terrific detail in both images, well done!

When’s the Mewlon 250 due – LOL.

Cheers

Dennis
