Colour on the Moon
The following trio of images show the Aristarchus Plateau in colour. The first is in natural unenhanced
colour and to my eyes there is a subtle blue tinge around Aristarchus and the main body of the plateau
appears slightly mustard. The subsequent two images are the same but with colour progressively
enhanced.

Anaxagoras is the prominent crater lower left, with the less well defined
Goldschmidt and Barrow to its right.
Notice the rays apparently coming from Anaxagoras.
Bullialdus (upper right)
Notice the three arcuate rilles that lie just outside the dark form of Mare Humorum but may
be associated with it.
Total lunar eclipse 28th September 2015
Partly obscured by a tree: telescope cable failures led to the tardiness of the image!
A gorgeous sight with the naked-eye: a dark eclipse with a 'brownish' hue.
