Hi all,
Here another lunar mare image out of June. 10th session under mainly fair seeing and average transparency. Sun setting at the time of the recording.
The elusive mare Smythii is normally seen edge-on along the eastern limb, but the favourable libration brought it better in view.
Processing wasn’t that easy because of the very low contrasted ground.
More to follow.
Thank you for your attention.
Hi all,
This is likely my best image out of May 14 lunar session when thin clouds faded away and seeing steadied for a while.
To be noticed the rough texture of the lunar ground all way around the north polar area, the odd and wide “spot of light” centered above Anaxagoras crater and its weak radial blankets on the right side of the image.
Also, some suspicious bump not so far from Fontenelle crater (lower left corner) across the dorsae starting from its crater rim.
It’s too bad I couldn’t grab the area south of it!
More to follow.
Thank you for your attention.
Hi all, my jovian season has been closed on August 3rd because of the regular poor seeing here from that night on.
But I could capture the southern gas giant for a whole week at that time, find here below any image.
JUPITER JUL. 28
JUPITER JUL. 29
JUPITER JUL. 31
JUPITER AUG. 2
JUPITER AUG. 3
Of course, the planet was always in its murky low 20s. Sorry for my late posting but this is actually the best I could do lately.
Thank you for your patience.
