Hi all,

Hadley rille from last nights imaging run, its a bit dark since I used an IR passband filter (Schular 820nm) but I still like the look. Theres a very similar pic of it on page 31 of Charles Woods "The Modern Moon".

--cheers

Mike,

I took the liberty of brightening the image a bit. It is truly a wonderful image. Until I saw the picture in Woods' book, and your's I didn't realize how far Hadley Rille snakes around. Hope you like what I did to it. smile

Mike -

Amazing images from such a frigid night. Even the air turbulence must have been to cold to move. Extreme astronomy at its best!
