Another colour moon shot.

It's been a long time since I've been able to take any astro-shots at all and I'm getting desperate.
I managed to get out during the full moon for a little while and take a few shots of it and tried getting some good colour out of it. I got 32 imaged fired off but only ended up using half of them, seeing conditions where horrible at best so I didn't get as sharp an image as I liked.

16 images
Iso 100
2500th second exposure
10" skywatcher
Eq6 Pro
Both Images went through the same processing only one hasn't had colour added, and cropped a little more.

Vash, top shots mate, but I reckon you should just leave it natural, the right image is the way to go, great stuff.

I walked out side one night and I couldn't even recognize it, southern cross high up, orion low in the west, last I saw it was still in the east. I think Saturn's fairly high up now,

I like the natural one as well thats why I included it so you can compare the colour as well, I just wish there conditions where better, could have brought out a lot of detail in the surface.
