Hi All,
Paul Campbell was complaining about the cold in Washington Pa.
I had to practically crawl through the dew on the grass to take this shot of a waning moon. It was still too low on the horizon for comfort but I wanted to catch it before dawn. Why do we do this to ourselves? :wall:
What I like about using a low power eyepiece (25mm Plossl on my 9"Dob) is the fact that I get the whole moon in the frame and therefore in one afocal image.
I used Microsoft Picture-It to adjust the brightness, sharpness and contrast and Noiseware to clean up the image.
