This is from the night of nice seeing 2 weeks ago:
Longomontanús, west of Clavius not so well known, but with a nice companion crater and surroundings.
Imaged with DMK21BF04 and 16" at f/10, enlarged x2.

Hi Johannes -

Wonderful - It is great that your 16" allows the DMK image to be enlarged to this extent with very little compromise.
BTW - I just happened on your recent image of the Horsehead region. That is really a horse of a different color - truly stunning.

best,
Alan
