Description

Mosaic image of the waxing gibbous moon taken from my backyard through a pier-mounted Celestron CGEM 800 using eyepiece projection. I used BackyardEOS to capture LiveView from my Canon T1i. I then processed, stacked, and sharpened the AVI’s in RegiStax 6 and combined the resulting images in Microsoft Image Composite Editor.

When the moon is in crescent, we see an attractive phenomenon: The Moon's Earthshine. What is the Earthshine? Earthshine is a faint glow on the dark side of the Moon. This faint glow is the reflected of sunlight from the Earth. The best time to see the Earthshine is the 1-5 day period before or after a New Moon, when the Moon is in crescent. In this photo you can see the Earthshine and two stars near the Moon. Photography from Earthshine is attractive, Because in such photos we can see a differ photo from other photos.
