A few photos from this month of going ham at astro, tonight I want to take a stab at stitching photos for the moon so I can stack them and have maximal resolution

    Bortle 8 is horrible; I’m not sure you’ll be able to do much with that. Maybe around 5-6 you can get something with stacking.

      Yeah closest bortle 4 is a two hour drive away haha, I’m not even near a big city but there a bunch of big cities clustered where I am so the light bleed goes far.

      I was in a bortle 4 zone like a year or two ago visiting family and I was suprised to find out that you actually need a flashlight to walk around outside at night whereas here in bottle 8 you can see in foresty areas without flashlights and when the full moon is out it is downright bright outside, I’m on the Midwest of the us btw so not even near where you get low amounts of seasonal light shift.
