Mars was a bust tonight but I grabbed this one clip from the moon with the 14.25" f/3.56 Newtonian. Probably should have used the 2.5x Powermate instead of the 5x. Not the sharpest I've imaged but okay for the seeing conditions.

How can an image of Clavius be bad?

So true! The variations in lighting angle keeps it interesting.

I am old and new at all this. I love to see anything that shows these gems especially anything Clavius. I am still learning to appreciate lighting angles with any variants.

*Seeing conditions here in Ohio have been horrid as of late so thanks for sharing your efforts.
