This is important! If you don't supply ALL information, we won't be able to use your photograph!!!!

Eight Day Old Moon - 3/18/2005
Charlie Hein - Weston Florida

Mosaic of eight individual frames taken with a Canon EOS 300D at prime focus of a Celestron C14 (3910mm).



Clicking on this image will launch a larger, but still not full-sized version. It is 901K in filesize, so do not click it if you have a slow internet connection - unless you want to wait around a while for it to load! The larger image is still only 33% of the size of the full-sized (54 megabyte) mosaic.

Luna Begins Her Second Day - 03/11/2005
Charlie Hein - Weston FL

Afocal shot taken with Sony DCR-TRV30 DV Camcorder
through a 25mm Plossl eyepiece on an Orion ED80 refractor.

A six minute .avi (~10000 frames) was stacked to create a base image which was then made into two copies - one concentrating on the properly exposed Lunar disk, and one strongly processed to bring out the captured Earthshine.

The two copies were composited in PhotoShop to create the final output.
