    The Moon, the whole Moon, and nothing but the Moon.

    This image is a composite of two images. Using the C-8 and my DSLR with an adapter, I can only shoot approximately 3/4 of the moon in any one image. So I shoot two 3/4 images, one from the top and another from the bottom, then stitch the two in a program called Microsoft ICE (Image Composite Editor). The finished stitched image is saved and imported into Adobe Lightroom and post processed there and finished in Adobe Photoshop, where I sized it for the Internet also.

    That is a very well defined image. Nicely done!
