Moon mosaic Sep 19

Last week I did a moon mosaic just before dawn at good conditions with the C11 at f/10. An additional 10D image closed some gaps between the mosaic frames.
The mosaic shows that the big effort in putting together and smoothing out the small frames pays back in much more resolution.
Each frame consists of 100 Registax processed images, total 4500 raws.

The digicam color information has been used for the webcam mosaic to give a smoother appearence.

VERY impressive! Did you use a filter, and if so what type? I am trying to do some moon photography, but am a rank amateur.

Johannes -

Just breathtaking!

I was experimenting with using webcam streams for a high resolution image of the full moon Sept.10 at focal length 3600mm. The seeing was not good, and after doing about half the moon with 50 streams, I packed it in and went to bad. Decided I would not live long enough to finish the processing.

Its super to see yours turn out so well.
