The Moon. Credit: Denis Vida
Even though the Moon is one of the most photographed celestial bodies, it’s still tricky to get it right. Anyone with a camera can actually point and shoot the Moon, but this photo is one of the best amateur photographs of the Moon I’ve seen so far.
This high-definition photo of the Moon was captured by Denis Vida of Valpovo, Croatia. It’s composed of 27 individual pieces with 700 stacked frames stitched together as one photo.
Denis used a Celestron C8 telescope and Philips TouCam II Pro. The photos were processed using Registax 5 and Photoshop.
Way to go, Denis!
