When Life deals you a lemon

[sury]

Try to squeeze it on a lobster. My hopes of taking starry nights (and hopefully Milkyway) were dashed due to Full Moon during our trip to Chile.
So here are couple of treatments of the Full Moon. 17 images stacked in two different ways. Hand held shots, The final stacked image is reduced from approx. 42MP to 1.5MP. Perhaps a bit heavy handed treatment, I readily admit.

This one is directly stacked using Zerene stacker.

This one is aligned using PIPP software and then stacked using Zerene.

Thank you Valerie and JB. Unfortunately it is supposed to rain continuously here in San Jose, CA from tonight through mid next week.
I will give it a try never the less.

Thank you DA. Unfortunately going to southern hemi did not let me see the "dark side" of the moon.

Good shots, Sury. Well done!

I'm always impressed by your stacking results.
If the rover trespasses to the visible side of the moon it may show, who knows. It is a rover after all.. Your photos are so sharp, it just may show…

Thanks for sharing,
