Mosaic of 6-day-old Moon...Mosaic of three shots taken along the terminator from N to S. Each taken with 5-inch apo refractor with 10mm Plossl eyepiece projection for approx 6000mm effective focal length. Taken with Ektachrome 200 slide film. Images composited in Photoshop to make complete N to S terminator panorama. Black sky added and expanded to widen frame. Some mismatch visible at high power due to uneven magnification across frame from eyepiece projection...Taken from home in Alberta under good seeing conditions.
