I have not imaged the Moon since May…and I was missing that lovely imager’s feeling when you focus the scope on a superb near-termiantor detail and the seeing is fantastic…
Well, on August 21 the seeing was fantastic but the Moon was at around 20 degrees of altitude. Nevertheless I was determined to image some lunar craters. And, despite the very low altitude of our satellite, some interesting details are detectable on the image below.
Equipment: 355mm Newton, ASI 174MM, Red filter. Seeing for the Moon: 3-4/10 (but at 20 degrees that is pretty much fantastic!).
