Nice shot.
What's the advantage of stacking for this type of shot?

Apparently it brings out more detail and sharpness. I got the idea from watching Tony Northrup's video on shooting the moon on youtube.
It's not too bad but I wouldn't have had a clue what to do without watching the video first.

Still a bit fuzzy IMHO.
A good detailed shot of the moon needs to see the Alpine Valley, a 79 mole long, 3 mile wide valley. But kinda depends on lens used etc.
But your image looks good at arms length if you understand my meaning..................

Yes I've seen many far more detailed moon shots but it's the best I've managed to date.
I should have included gear used in my OP: Nikkor 70-300 on a D5100 so not hugely croppable - I pushed it as far as I could I think.
