Harvest Moon October 1, 2020

Post by ffellah »

Hello all: last night I had a quick peek at the beautiful full moon. SkyWatcher Evostar 72mm with the ZWO 178 camera.

Thank you, Pedro. I had a 10-15 minute window of opportunity between trees, utility poles and other stuff in the way. I like this 72mm scope very much, it is very portable and produces what I think are good results.

An FAB image Franco - so sharp and clear...

Pixels only start to show at around 300x screen zooming-in on my large screen.

Thanks vm
