Astrophotography







Moon at 1/250th second, ASA 100 film, 25mm eyepiece projection. I think this is about f/28.

The longer exposure makes the crater rays look better, but washes out the maria too much, I think. A gibbous or full Moon isn't the best choice as a target, but that's all I had last night.



You will notice some odd color effects on the limb of the Moon--that's my scanner having registration problems, I think, because it's not in the picture.
