Moon 1st April

This was a surprisingly difficult shot! The atmosphere was so turbulent that I couldn't get a sharp image at my initial settings - this was the A700 DSLR at prime focus of ETX105 tube 1470mm f14, and with the camera set to ISO400 and 1/60th sec the exposure was correct but the turbulence was blurring the image, so I went up to 1/250th and ISO1600, then applied some mild noise reduction with Neat Image. Not a bad result.....
