My 1st Uranus image, my best Moon ever, and Jupiter all in Criterion RV-6
My 1st Uranus image, my best Moon ever, and Jupiter all in Criterion
RV-6 All shots taken with single exposure/no stacking, through: 6" Criterion RV-6, 15mm Parks eyepiece afocal, Kodak Easyshare Z730 My first Uranus image (taken tonight) http://setisociety.org/uranus5Aug07.jpg These next 2 Moon shots from tonight I've left un-processed (no stacking, no mosaics, no processing at all, just single shots straight from the Kodak) Lunar South http://setisociety.org/100_6436.JPG Lunar North http://setisociety.org/100_6444.JPG And these next 2 Moon shots I edited down http://setisociety.org/moon2on5Aug07.jpg http://setisociety.org/moon3on5Aug07.jpg I almost hate to bring down the above with this next one of Jupiter from the other night, but Starry Night Pro says that there was an IO shadow transit going on; maybe somebody else here was taking a shot at the same time? http://setisociety.org/jupiterduringIOshadow.jpg Clear skies, Jason H. |

Jason,
Looks like you put in a couple of good night's work. I was particularly impressed by your Lunar South. It's very sharp and captures a lot of Clavius craterlets as well as some elegant slump terracing in Moretus. Looking South of Clavius past Blancanus and Scheiner one sees the Casatus / Klaproth duo. I have never noticed the floor on Klaproth is almost perfectly flat, indicative of rather significant volcanism *after* the Late Heavy Bombardment. This is most anamolous for the S Highlands. Your colors stand out well in the M Imbrium area and you can pick out the (blue) Titanium pools easily. Good planets too. I wonder if Jupiter will ever get back to it's normal, two banded appearance again. Keep em' coming, Ben |
