Mosaic Moon 2nd Attempt

I thought I had this one completed, but as you can see, I missed a tad. Maybe the 3rd. time will be the charm? This image consist of 24 areas with 900 usable stacked web cam frames each, that's 21600 frames!

54% Moon

This particular web cam image consist of 9 different areas along the terminator. Processed and stacked 4500 frames in Registax4, then finalized in PhotoShop. Seeing was average at best, with occasional passing clouds.

Saturday Night Saturn

Jupiter...Spotless

After two weeks, I finally was able to get the Mak under clear skies. I brought the scope out last night, did some tweaking with the focus, got it polar aligned and left it out for this morning. It was 5:22AM when the planet had finally cleared the trees. Unfortunately the spot was not in view at this time, may be in a week or so it will be possible to capture it, darn trees..!

This image is 1000 frames stacked, seeing was good, but not great and it was crystal clear with heavy freezing dew. I resized it along with some PS touch up.
