PhotographerAnthony AyiomamitisLocationAthens, GreeceDateApr 03, 2007 @ 01:53:00 UT+3EquipmentAP 160 f/7.5 StarFire EDF, AP 1200GTO GEM, Canon EOS 300d, 1/200 sec, ISO 100, RAW Image Format, 3072x2048 Image Size, Manual ModeDescriptionExploiting the subtle colour information available in all RGB images of the moon, special processing can be applied to bring forth salient details about the lunar surface and its rich geology. For example, areas rich in titanium are characterized with the dark blue colouration; similarly, areas rich in aluminum are characterized with orange colouration. |

PhotographerAnthony AyiomamitisLocationAthens, GreeceDateSept 03/15, 2006EquipmentCanon EOS 300d, Canon EOS EF-S 18-55 mm @ 35 mm, Baader ND5.0 Solar FilterDescriptionThe end of each Saros cycle (every 18 yrs) allows for a unique opportunity to observe the rising moon exhibit the greatest possible variation in azimuth at moonrise and which translates to a maximum declination of 28.60° above AND below the ecliptic during the SAME synodic month. It is my understanding that this is the ONLY photo in existence documenting this phenomenon. |
