Photo description / processing

My first experience of getting a color image of the Moon in which one can discern what color different areas of its surface are. This cannot be achieved with an ordinary camera—a color astro camera is exactly what is needed. The result is a stack of 355 frames out of 3500. Of course, there is still work to be done in the photo editor; perhaps I will refine this frame further later.
