Moon in colour

Recommended Posts

Greetings Readers,

I tried to attach an image with no success. All I get is an upload error : -200. The image conforms to the guide lines ie. occupies less than 2048 mbytes and the width is 1766 pixels and the size is 304 kb.

Are there any settings that need to be set before I can upload an image on this forum?

Thanks in advance,

Jeremy.

Success here.

It looks as if the height of the image must be of the order of 1000 pixels.

So this is my moon picture in colour. This is not a false colour picture of the moon but an "actual" colour picture. The image was obtained by increasing the colour saturation (only - no hue control) of a well balanced (looks B&W) colour picture of the moon. From what I read this sought of picture tells one about the mineral distribution on the moons' surface. The blue parts indicate Titanium rich areas on the seas (mare). I am in the process (a very lengthy one) of collecting images of the various phases to make a composite picture for a photo competition.

Rgds (73's to you radio amateurs),

Jeremy.
