Moon #143


Today’s full Moon – unfortunately not very detailed because it got a
bit cloudy and the seeing wasn’t too good. It’s still not green, though :-).

It’s not quite full Moon yet – that’s tomorrow – but I can say safely that the Moon is definitively not green or any other colour than normal today, despite all the recent silly rumours! :-)

Yesterday was cloudy, today I caught the Moon a bit earlier and it’s already really small in the frame taken at the same focal length as usual – it’s almost the Mini-Moon at a distance of over 400.000 km!

After all that April weather today, I caught the Moon early when it was still not completely dark!

That’s not today’s Moon, but yesterday’s – and it was somewhat hazy so I had to do some heavy post-processing. This is slightly oversharpenend, but I was surprised how much detail came through.

I didn’t even expect to see the Moon today, but it came through
the clouds for just a moment – perfect for April 12, Yuri’s Night!

I caught tonight’s Moon about 10 minutes before the clouds came… and when I wanted to take some additional photos to stack, it was gone. So this one is a bit less sharp, but still with lots of craters.

Tonight’s Moon – just because we finally caught sight of it again :-).
