Hi Guys,
just loved to capture the moon ( so more of this list !), so here a image from yesterday, get early out my bed.
Here a full size from Copernicus region, the sun angel was very low.
Normaly I use my 3x barlow, but the seeing did not alow this, so I use a 2.5 x and the same set-up, C11, red filter, ATK-2HS

Kindly regards Richard

Hi Richard,

a great rendering of the rays, the different lavas and the secondary craters. A good example that it doesn't require a low angle of sunlight for great lunar images smile

Best wishes & clear skies,
Oliver

A fine image, Richard. I was completely clouded out this week - I'm glad to see that you and others had better luck.

best -
Alan
