      Description

      A close-up view of the north pole of the moon at first quarter phase. Good seeing and a well tuned Celestron EdgeHD 9.25" pushed my QHY678C to its resolution limit, welcome to zoom up. Next time I would consider changing to the smaller pixel sized QHY715C under better seeing conditions.
