Lunar - NNW limb mosaic

Hi guys.

Here's a mosaic I created from 9 images taken last night, with a fair amount of overlap.

The images were all from the NNW limb of the moon, and the main crater just below centre is Pythagoras, a 133km wide crater with a double central mountain.

The seeing was absolutely shocking due to the Jetstream, and only ~10 frames were stacked in each image (out of 300-500 frames each).

I haven't imaged this part of the moon before, so while it's not quite as sharp at high resolution as I'd hoped for, i'm still reasonably happy with how it looks when the dimensions are reduced.

Any seeing that you can see the stars is brilliant as far as I am concerned. Cloudy & rainy here at the moment.

Nah, I'm with Rob, seeing is good if you can see, and at present all I can see is rain, and cloud, and more rain. Shortest day is always like that.
