Lunar Images (02/07/2025)

With moon near zenith a good evening for a little lunar imaging. Format 800x600 raw16 with Celestron 8/SCT+ASI178MC at prime focus. Stack averaging from 3000 frames. Wavelet sharpening with script written by author.  Post processing with Paintshop Pro. As an aside wavelet script was recently upgraded with parameter input dialogs that allow me to vary the brightness and contrast, number of sharpening cycles, wavelet radius, strength and gauss radius.
