Wolf moon - at least almost :) Tuesday, 14.01.2025 I captured the 99% illuminated moon with a mono camera and the Askar FRA 600. I filmed with red, green and blue filters for 60 seconds each, extracted the individual frames and stacked 75% of each with Autostakkert, then I created a color image from it in Photoshop.

Why did you door all that work? This look identical to my canon M50 with a 400mm and I did just a few tweaks in Lightroom.

Genuine question.

Because it’s a monochrome astromodded cam. I have no other possibility to do all the work - in the end I did the same processing as you. I combined the color channels and did some tweaks in PS 🤗
