41% Crescent Moon

41% Crescent moon.

Canon 60Da, Celestron 11' @ f/6,3 focal reducer.

 

This is a single shot, sharpened.

It's not possible to get the entire moon in focus, you'll see the craters at the top are focused but not the bottom. To overcome this the moon needs to be imaged in sections and stitched together - I sadly only reserve that patience for deep sky objects :)
