AstrophotographerAndrew McCarthyis back with a new high-definition look at the moon.
Interestingly, the final image isn’t completely as it appears.
McCarthy shot these images over the course of 45 minutes using a telescope set at 2000mm.
In post-production, he then selected only the best frames where there was the least atmospheric disturbance.
Processing is a bit longer, just because it’s so much data.
A beautiful edition to McCarthy’sastrophotographyportfolio, the image is yet another homage to one of his favorite celestial bodies.
