Hi Steve, Agree. Excellent shot Bernard! I notice you picked a target at +61 Dec. That was a little farther from the moon than the target I picked at +38. I wonder how much difference there is in sky brightness at different angles from the moon? Maybe not much. I think the H-alpha filter was a really good decision! I will try to remember that... (My color shot suffered from LOTS of blue light...) I was just so happy to get anything and not have the roof close unaccountably on my scope. :-) Thanks, Howard stevecoe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: >I am consistently fascinated by how much detail can be captured by modern >equipment when the Moon is almost Full.
