Hi,

After seeing Paolo's excellent Hadley Rille image it reminded me that I had a Hadley Rille Avi that I had not processed yet, one thing I noticed about this image is that if you look at the bottom of the image and then slowly look up to Hadley Rille it has a 3D look as though you are looking down from a mountain top at Hadley Rille, well it looks that way to me anyway smile

Starmaster 18" Newt., 11500mm focal length, DMK-21F04 camera, 30FPS, stack of 1000 frames from 2145.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

That is indeed 3D on my monitor and a most excellent image.

Beatiful image Wes! As usual, I should add.

I also agree on the 3D effect.

Thanks for keeping up this flow of great images Wes.

Hi Wes,

That is amazing and your right about it looking like you actually took the image from the Moon itself. 8O

Clear skies,

Hi Wes -

It is an interesting effect - like a photo taken with a long lens at wide aperture where only part of the image is in sharp focus.

I really like the full range of tonal values you achieve in these images - beautiful and naturalistic.

Hello Wes,


Very nice image. I saw a moon rock from Hadley Rille last year when I was in DC. They have one on display at the National Air and Space Museum.

Really superb Wes!!!

I love how the little bit oblique angle gives that flyby sensation! Nicely captured with no overexposed areas!
