Copernicus

< Previous Next >Best seeing I've had in my backyard for ages! This time there were already good amount of detail in single frames. Copernicus was well lit and gave out nice details from wall terraces and central mountains. Too bad I cannot use the 4x barlow with moon because of the huge internal reflections. This is the best moon image I've taken so far!
