Taken the same morning I was imaging Mars. Again the seeing was average 3/5 and transparency was variable with high thin clouds drifting through.

295 out of 1799 TouCam AVI frames stacked using Registax 3, final processing in Photoshop CS.

I always enjoy looking at Theophilus visually. Not too many times I can seperate all 4 central peaks with a 4" refractor, so it was nice to image it for the first time using the TouCam. I also like to study the terraced side walls and try to imagine what it would be like to climb my way out from the crater floor.
