Can't remember if I posted this shot before. Single frame taken with my Meade 8" SCT at F6.3 with my newly acquired 7D. Slight sharpening and contrast adjustment in digital photo professional

looking good John, if you have more of these frames, then you'd get sharper detail if you stacked them.,

Thanks Guys
I'm pretty happy with the sharpness from this single frame taken under very good seeing. I needed to take about 15-20 frames to get one as sharp as this.

I really like that image John. The full moon can sometimes seem a little flat and bland, but you have contrived to make it look wonderfully detailed and three-dimensional.
