Some Moon from last night, poor conditions

I was trying out the EOS 600D in 1920x1080 movie crop mode last night, coupled with a 5x Powermate and 12" Sky Watcher Goto Dobsonian. Seeing was below average and transparency very porr due a layer of cloud. Nonetheless I managed a few images at 1/30th sec ISO 1600, all very heavily processed because of the conditions, so hopefully not too offensive

Thanks for looking,

Tom

The first and last ones came out very nicely Tom

I agree the first and last ones are nice, little bit overdone "unsharp-masked" if that is what you used but nice detail on the last one.

Thanks Rob and Malcolm. I'm not used to processing such large areas in such poor conditions. Hopefully clear skies will come back soon! I included the second shot because it showed Rupes Recta lit at such an oblique angle.
