Hi all,

Thought I'd post my one decent image from last night. heres Copernicus for the 1000th time. Stack of 210 done in Reg 2 18" Starmaster, Atik webcam, Baader IR pass filter.
Seeing was a variable 4-6/10

thanks

Mike W

Hi Mike,

Excellent image, I think I could tell this came from a large aperture scope with out even knowing, despite the 4-6/10 seeing the resolution a large scope offers for the moon makes small features stand out.

Thanks,
