Moonsaic Meade 10" SCT
This is my first attempt at a Moon Mosaic.
It wasn't my intention, I was using the moon to focus the DMK21, but thought I'd have a shot whilst I was there. Roughly 500 frames for each piece (I was low on HDD space), stacked in Autostakkert and glued together in Photoshop.

I have no idea what I am doing, but thought I'd post it anyway!

Shot through the Meade 10" ACF SCT, DMK settings on manual.

Nice image as a mosaic Peter, however on my screen it looks a little over sharpened.

It sure is over-sharpened, I wanted a dark apocalyptic look, Scarred is a great word for it Houghy.

I do have a soft cuddly one as well.

This was the mosaic layout, it wasn't planned so it is all over the shop, but thought some may be interested in the DMK21 coverage.
