Moon through 10-inch dobsonian telescope - 28 Jan 2013

Post by Gary »

Moon shot through Jeremy's 10-inch dobsonian last night. This dob's primary is a non-premium, mass-produced GSO mirror. Afocal shot with handheld HTC One S with exposure value set to the minimum -2. No ND filter used. Minor levels and curves post-editing in photoshop.

Hope you guys enjoyed looking at the clear moon last night. :)
