Moon & Jupiter

Tonight is the full moon in my area. Also, Jupiter is right close by. I stacked two exposures to get this picture.

Here is a dimmer stack of just the moon

Mostly this was just a test of controlling the camera with my new phone. I didn't put the Bahtinov mask on so the focus is not as good as it could be. The set up worked very well and I was able to adjust aperture, ISO, shutter & focus all without having to bump the camera around. After I get a little more experience I'll describe it in more detail.

Moon – November 19, 2012

Here is a quick image stack of the moon using Registax 6. I used a 1.5 min video. I don't know how to use the program very well so I'm not sure if the problems are from that or my camera settings. MVI_1942_crop
Here is a shot using just the manual settings. The exposure is much better here but there isn't as much detail.

Here is a shot with several manual shots stacked.
