Thanks James

It looks great. I use frequently a WO binoviewer to observe the moon and sun.

Well Pedro, I know the Lunt scope is good, but for your Lunar exploits certainly is another use than just Solar, so well imaged.

Cheers

Nice set of images there, Pedro. Not too much between them (if we forget one is a mosaic).

Stunning! :bow :hamster: I saw the Moon last night for the first time in a couple of weeks, I thought how beautiful it looked but it was far too low to image

Thanks guys

The LUNT152 is not an apo refractor and I have to use narrowband filters to image the moon. Usually I prefer to use my apo refractors (TMB175, TEC140...)
