Hi,

Between vacation and lousy weather here in Oklahoma I have not had many images to post lately , here is an image taken a few months ago that has the fly over look.
It is of the Southern Lunar highlands area, I forgot exactly where on the moon I was imaging at and have been trying to locate and name some of the craters with no luck maybe some of you can name them.

18" Starmaster Newt., 9000mm FL,DMK-21F04 camera, 30FPS, stack of 807 frames from 2100

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Hi Wes,

I was wondering where you went...that's a sweet image! It really does give a fly-by look.

Hi Wes,

Thats a lovely orbiter style image. Lunar shot take on a whole different perspective and charm when the dark sky is visible above the surface near the limb...

Best Wishes
