Yes
Finally.. it seems like months, but is actually only week.. a clear night...

Using my Skymax 102 and QHY5v guide/planetary camera, I made a mosaic of the moon (at an eq fl of 11050mm)... 33 panes, 500 frames in each AVI, stacked in Registax and stitched in iMerge.



Click the pic for bigger.

That was fun, I needed that :D

Hope you like it... It took more than five times as long to process as it did to capture...

Very nice.I really like it.I take quite a lot of moon pics,but not up to the standard of your photo.I have posted a few of mine on other moon threads on here.
 
Very impressive bud - nice one!
 
Thanks all. Just need a bigger telescope now for even greater resolution ;)...

I forgot to mention the camera was mildly chugging along at about 40 frames per second.
 
Jesus John.
I was just going to post my somewhat pathetic 200mm moon shot.
Now I ain't gonna bother :dummy:
