Wolf Moon Kisses Shard

A still picture of the same event of my timelapse in the previous entry. This was separately processed. More details about the event and capture on the previous entry, I originally called this "Wolf Moon Licking Shard" but Barry Cassels who arranges our Flamsteed Astronomy Society's members gallery video, gave it a much more romantic name which does sound so much nicer than my original crass title!

 

Location: Greenwich

Telescope: Skywatcher Equinox 80

Mount: Celestron Nexstar 8SE

Camera: Canon 650D

ISO: 200

Shutter: 1/1000

f6.3

f/l: 504mm

 

Software: EOS Utilities (capture), Camera Raw, various adjustments to bring out the almost invisible moon. Photoshop for final levels and curves adjustment and clearing dust bunnies on my well battered camera sensor.

 

Capture method: Used EOS Utilities on a Dell XPS13 Ultrabook tethered to camera to shoot the moonset. the 13inch screen helps me see the images live and, in more comfort, even though it's a cumbersome setup.
