This image of the moon is a composite of 34 images, each in turn created by stacking the best five percent of about 700 frames of video, acquired with a ZWO ASI224MC camera attached to an 8 inch Newtonian reflector telescope. The telescope has a native focal length of 800 mm, which was increased to 1600 mm with a Televue 2X PowerMate for this imaging session.

The videos were acquired with FireCapture software, and the frames from each video were selected based on quality and stacked with AutoStakkert software. The 34 resulting images were composited with Microsoft ICE, and the resulting composite image was processed with PixInsight to reduce noise, balance color and enhance sharpness.
