No letup in the jetstream, so was desperate enough to image the moon near the zenith and manually select the few frames that were not totally useless. This image was all I got before the rain started - it required heavy processing, so it's not particularly high quality, but it is an interesting crater with rubble piles slumped on this part of the floor and a smooth wall left behind - and I'm grateful for any image these days. Thanks for looking. Regards Ray

That’s a very nice image and you have done really well to produce such a sharp and detailed result, in spite of the unsatisfactory conditions.
Cheers

Hi John. Thanks. Never looked at this crater much before - it sure is interesting.
Hi Malcolm. Hope you are soon able to get back to imaging with your Dob.
