A few moon shots

Couple of shots from the cometcatcher & 1 from the C9.25.

Settings for cometcatcher pics: gain 0% gamma 75% contrast 100% brightness 50% exp. no idea (900nc working under Vlounge doesn't give you that info) 5FPS B/W mode contrast booster/fringe killer/IR/UV cut filters stacked.

Settings for C9.25: As above but at maximum exposure (I assume 1/25th sec.) The seeing tonight was terrible, so I wasn't the least bit tempted to reach for the 2X barlow for any 'in your face' shots with the 9.25

No processing apart from what can be done in registax & camera onboard sharpening.

Cheers.
