Subject: moon image...

Great moon image Milton, It`s interesting that you`re using shots taken from 10 different 

films. My attempts have been too inconsistent as to tracking so far to try more than 1. 

Yesterday I managed a Polar alignment using the HC and mount and was able to have 

Equinox 6 and Astroplanner working consistently. It`d be nice though to have a dome and 

not have to set-up each time! I`m finding with the C10-NGT aligned south that the plastic 

housing on the mount drags across one of the locking levers when slewing to things in the 

north?! Last night I was trying to find another crater which I think I`ve identified as 

Theophilus. One of the maps I found on Google had led me astray! I`ve ordered the Hatfield 

lunar atlas from Amazon- I found only 1 place selling the Rukl atlas on Amazon which 

allowed International postage and that was out of my price range at present at $128 USD! Is 

"My Compositor" available yet or are you making it so? Mark.
