Description

Taken with ZWO 120MM mini through a Skymax 127 and 2x Barlow. I used a diagonal so image is flipped.

Best 10% of frames taken from a 3 minute video.

I believe the dark rim is the result of a diffraction or sharpening artefact, but pleased I managed to get some surface detail with this first effort.
