Mak 127/1500 First Light + EOS 4000D single shot

 

The Moon, at the time of capture, was at its meridian transit but a little high above the horizon (about 25 deg). At this height, any object is affected by atmospheric absorption. The hue is often warmer and a very high definition is not achieved. Normally all the details are softer than in a zenith capture.
