Day 6 Lunar Mosaic (Re-processed) 2015-03-26 19:53 UT

Aberkenfig, South Wales

Lat +51.542 Long -3.593

 

Here is one from my archive with some additional post processing adjustments using Adobe Lightroom. Levels originally adjusted using G.I.M.P.

 

For a comparison, it is also filed in my Lunar Mosaics album next to my original posting.

 

 

Image session commenced 19:53 UT using Sharpcap.

 

11 Pane Mosaic.

 

Each pane captured with a Skywatcher 254mm Newtonian & ZWO ASI 120MC Astronomical Imaging Camera.

 

Each pane processed with Registax 6 then stitched with Microsoft Image Composite Editor.

 

This was one of my earlier attempts of putting together a lunar mosaic with a ZWO ASI 120MC. It turned out reasonably well as the overlap of each pane was less generous than my later captures.

 

A favourable libration on the eastern limb with the Mare Marginis & Mare Smythii clearly visible.

 

Best viewed using the expansion arrows.
