We have had a lot of clear evenings and nights lately, and I have used the opportunity to take images of a growing Moon. I managed to create images on the 6th, the 8th, the 9th and the 10th of February before the clouds gathered yet again. I have tried different techniques to get as much as possible from the images. I am still learning to process images taken with my new Klevtsov. And I think this is the most I have gotten from them. I decided to reduce them from the original size. The original sampling was about 0.25" per pixel. I doubled that to 0.5". It seems to make the images clearer and sharper. So I will maybe continue doing that. All images are mosaics of several images, since the field of the ASI178 only covers about 500x750". Click on the images to get original size. Right-click and choose "Open image in new tab" to zoom in on the details.
Tech details : TAL Kletvtsov-Cass 200/2000mm, ASI178MM camera with Astronomik ProPlanet 642 filter. Gain 200, 1000x4mS exposures. Stacked 25% best in AS!3, sharpened using wavelets in RegiStax 6, processed in Gimp 2.10.
