ShahGazer Rambling about Astrophotography, Coding and Clouds

I did a quick look at the current 4 sets of moon mosaic, and finally can compile a series of photos showing the different texture on the surface due to the angle of the sun. I've been wanting to do this for quiet a while. So, here it the first set, aiming at the craters Aristoteles and Eudoxus, at the northern tip (near Plato) of the moon

This is another moon mosaic, taken on the 30th July 2012. The moon is 11.42 days old. However, I had some teething problem when using the photomerge function in Photoshop CS3. It took quiet before it was finally solved this evening. Click here for the 2500 pixel version (50% reduced from the original size)

This is yet another mosaic of the Moon (12.48 days old), taken on the 31st July 2012. It's a combination of 69 video files, and took me almost a day to complete the mosaic!  I have reduced 50% from its original resolution. Somehow the link from the photo above goes to the 1600x1600 size. Click HERE for the 2500x2500 version .
