Title: Wolf Moon image from Orpington
Post by: Dave A on Jan 29, 2024, 15:57:15
Image of the Full Moon (Wolf Moon) taken on 26th January from my back garden in Orpington- it was a lovely clear evening and the perfect opportunity to take a nice image.

Taken using my ZWO Seestar S50 smart telescope

Hi Dave, I've edited the image link to show your image in a way that works here. If you edit your messsage above you will be able to see what I've done.

Rick,

Many thanks-  I posted on the forum a while ago but only text was showing- image has just gone on there.

I thought I did everything correctly- what do I need to do in future to ensure image is ok

Thanks

Dave

The code I used looks like this:

[url="http://gallery.orpington-astronomy.org.uk/displayimage-2695-_Wolf_Moon_.html"]Gallery link[/url]
The first line links to the full-size image, and the link ends with the closing tag on the third line.
The second line displays the "normal" sized image
The last line links to the gallery page.

Good image Dave.  Don't worry we all struggle with posting images to begin with.

Nice result from a Seestar, I'll have to post one of my efforts from my Dwarf II for comparison.

Thanks Duncan- Now that the Seestar has a 4 x Zoom as well I am hoping to get close up images of some of the Moon's craters, shame the Seestar is not very good for planetary but going to image some deep sky galaxies and nebula as soon as we have clear skies in Orpington.
Will be interesting to see the Dwarf 11 images of the Moon
