I shot this with the TCON17 mounted.  I believe the TCON *may* have put a slight CA of a aquagreen on the top edge.  So, I converted it to B&W.

Wow that is impressive!  But I ask that you make this one of a series.... include a harvest moon...that will be later in the year I know!

 :oThis is incredible. Amazing the battering that hunk of rock has taken. I, too, would like to see more of these. Did you use a telescope as part of your array?

Thanks!  No, ma'am, I just used the Fujifilm HS-10 and an Olympus 1.7x teleconverter (TCON-17).  The HS-10 has a 30x zoom (720mm).  Mounting the TCON-17 gives me 51x zoom (1224mm).  With that much reach, a tripod and remote shutter release is an absolute must.  Since I haven't received my remote yet, I used the 10-second timer. 

These were shot earlier in the week.

No TCON, racked out, uncropped


No TCON, racked out, 45% crop


With TCON mounted, racked out 5-8% crop

Absolutely incredible!

Can we count on these continuing?

If that's what you want.  Sure.
