Moon Mosaic Under Excellent Seeing was created by DaveGrennan
Last night (12th Feb) the seeing was exceptionally good, so after imaging the ISS, I took a mosaic of the lunar terminator.

The result is at;

webtreatz.com/component/option,com_zoom/...eNo,11/key,90/hit,1/

This is a three frame mosaic, taken with an f/4 Newtonian and Lumenera SkyYnx 2.0

Regards and Clear Skies,

Thats fantastic, the seeing was indeed excellent last night.I did a sketch of Theophilus, Cyrillus and Catharina, they are so clear in your image.
Such a detailed area.

Beautiful Dave, I never tire of lunar shots, keep 'em coming.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Thanks guys,

dmolloy, I too remember my first view of the Moon through a decent scope and will never forget it. Don't knock memories, you don't need a pc to access your memories and you will never lose them with a hard disk crash!
