"HR" Moon on February 17th

[Sedna]

Hi guys,

I have a new shot for you.

On 17th February the seeing was better than the weeks before.
So I set up my equipment and then I waited for the moon.

The waxing moon offered a fantastic view through my 20mm eyepiece.

Finally I took my Webcam and recorded an avi file.

The result - a mosaic out of 25 single frames created in Imerge - you can see below.

A very nice mosaic Andreas - well done. A lot of hard work with a dobsonian as I assume it is not on a driven mount? The image looks nicely processed on my monitor – nice and sharp with good tones throughout.

Cheers

If that was done on a dob mount then you should be VERY proud of your self.

Love it!!

Hi guys,

No it isn't a driven mount.I tracked the moon by hand.
