Hi,

This is an unusual Sun rise look at Schiller, the shadows
are almost all the way across the crater, when imaging at F/28 with my 14.5 Reflector all of Schiller will not fit on the CCD of the DMK-21F04 camera.

Image taken on 09/09/04 , 14.5 Starmaster, stack of 92 frames from 4860 (the seeing was below average for my location)

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Wes,

A very unusual image of Schiller with long shadows. The sun angle must have been very shallow for this to develop. A very interesting image. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
