This is a single exposure and no tracking was used. This night we had exceptional good air conditions with very good seeing.

Colors of the Moon
In this photo taken on the 24th of March 2018, I've exaggerated the colors on the lunar surface. The different colors correspond to real differences in the chemical makeup of the lunar surface - blue hues reveal titanium rich areas while orange and purple colors show regions relatively poor in titanium and iron.
