Hi all!

I made this Moon mosaic from videos captured this past April 15. The seeing was regular and the transparency of the sky was regular to bad. It is made of 4 different images and each image is the result of a video of 3000 frames and processed 1500 frames in Registax6. The mosaic was done manually in Photoshop7.

The equipment used was a 180mm f15 MakCass telescope and a DBK21 camera mounted all in a G11 mount.

The images were taken from Guadalajara, Mexico.

If you want to see a mouseover image with the names of the main feauters shown on this mosaic, you can go here:
