Description

Cropped image of full Gibbous Moon Image taken with Takahashi Mewlon 250CRS on 6/11/19. This image was at prime focus of the Mewlon and taken with a Canon 6D MKII. The exposure was at ISO 100 for 1/60 second. Resulting image was processed in Photoshop to enhance the contrast. I was pleased as this was a test to see how the collimation was coming along with my Mewlon. I didn't expect to be able to see Hadley Rille in the image but it is there even though not very distinct. Now I am anxious to try out this Mewlon on galaxies and small nebulae.
