I spent some time on the moon tonight. I increased the saturation to enhance our ability to see the different minerals on the moon that we can't really see. 115 frames taken with the Vizta, PIPP, Autostakkert, then further processed in Siril and GIMP.) #astrophotography #harvestMoon #fullMoon

Full moon as described in the post with more saturation and colour than usual

I hope @naztronomy.com had as clear a night as I did. It finally clouded up around 11:00 so I wrapped up my livestream.

Here's a picture made from the video I shot.

Large picture of a waxing gibbous moon taken from the Apollo Observatory that belongs to Jim Craig of Planet of Mystery Productions. It was in celebration of International Observe the Moon Night 04Oct2025.

Beautiful!

We had clear skies all night, it was a pretty successful event. About 250 people in person and another 200 online.

Awesome, good luck!! Just reposted.

I'm not advertising mine just in case it fails but I'm prepping to do a live stream from the star party. I think my phone's internet will be good enough, we'll find out!

Still working on processing but wanted to show the beautiful tail of Comet Lemmon from my last session. It's about 100 minutes worth of data here. Hoping to catch it again tonight if the weather allows.

We have 3 comets primed for viewing in October. I'm making plans to image them.

Here's a quick video about them: youtu.be/7gvXOwo-zwk

Not sure where I'll be but if you're in the Boston area and want to go with or know of a spot, let me know!

Looks like a great catch!

When I moved to MA, I thought it was pronounced Glow-Cester.

And of course, Worse-Cester.

Ha yeah, i actually wanted the trees in view the entire time but I think I need a wider angle lens or a full frame camera.

I guess I used to call them 'stargazing parties' instead of star parties. 2012 was definitely a heavy stargazing party year for me.

Old FB memory saying "Stargazing Party Successful" from Sept 23, 2012.

Good luck! I caught the Seeliger Effect a few years ago.

I got the transit last night but the seeing was terrible. Still trying to process something out of it.
