-1x300s, 2x100s, 2x60s, 2x30s exposures collected on 10/05/12 from 3am-5:30am in Honolulu, UH Dorms basketball court.
FOV moved while I was trying to lock down the guide star, so the shot isn't centered :( Slightly out of focus and/or some tracking error (I think due to the guide star not being in proper focus, I could see it jumping a little in the crosshairs. I guess digitally zooming in with the guidecam to finish the focus IS necessary). The moon was in the start of the last quarter, and it was also right beside Orion, probably about 30 degrees or less away. So it's kinda washed out and not crisp at all. I couldn't help it though, the weather was EXCEPTIONALLY clear, with ZERO breeze! I had to take the opportunity, even if the shot was smeared by the moon some. Also shouldn't have tried to rotate my FOV differently from the past shots... doesn't fit this way!
Mars Celestron NexStar 4SE (102mm) NexImage, 2-x Barlow, Backyard astrophotography
Video duration 4 min 00 sec (240sec), Frame Rate 10 frames/second, 2400 frames. Registax v6.1 - Drizzling Optimization, Wavelet - Default Initial Layer 1, RGB shift
Photoshop:
1. Decrease brightness (otherwise unsharp mask gives too bright plases),
2. Filter Unsharp Mask - allow to see more details (used more aggresive settings - later will fix smooth filter)
4. Filter Noise Median radius 3 - make more smooth image
3. Color balance - add a little bit Magenta

I got this Celestron EdgeHD 8" scope as part of an estate but haven't used it yet since a few parts seem to have gotten away. I just picked up an adapter to mount a Canon 60D body so I'm hoping the crop factor math still works here since this is a 2000mm lens, a 1.6x crop factor should give me 3200mm which is one heck of a long lens. I should be able to tell if a house fly is a boy or a girl from 3 counties away.

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. The forecast called for overcast skies the night of the lunar eclipse. Rain was coming later in the evening. So I took whatever I could before the clouds covered the moon completely.
The clouds obscured the moon throughout the evening, but I kept shooting. There were clouds in all the photos. At one point I saw blue and brown colors surrounding the moon.

While quality resolution is difficult, using Paint Shop Pro sharpen, clarify, contrast, and other adjustments allows me to get a fresh look at reality.

Ran a few tests tonight, to check that the mount could still guide. Everything seemed OK. That's a relief.
