Clavius large

Hi Wes -

Just beautiful! The tiny pecks rendered with such resolution and sharpness is again incredible. I wonder if I wash my pictures and put them in a hot dryer I might shrink my craterlets to look something like this. 8)

Hope there is still more to come from this exceptional night. These images are something else!

Hi Chase -

A nice wide field image. Astronomy equipment seems to get heavier every year. Hope you're feeling better.
