Hi all,

Some decent seeing tonight, 6-7/10. Did a rough mosaic of the rima Ariadaenus near Julius Caesar. Its 220 km long.
18" Starmaster 5X's barlow, Atik webcam, Baader IR passband filter.

cheers

Hi Mike,

Great! resolution and contrast, this image has all the ear marks of imaging at an 11500mm focal length with an 18" scope on a night of good seeing, there is even detail within the rima, very impressive.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
