<p>Április 25-én kiváló égbolt fogadott este. Sehol egy felhő és a Hold fénye világítja be az eget. Gondoltam csinálok egy képet égi kísérőnkről. Ennyire azért nem volt egyszerű a történet. 😃 A fényképezőgépem (Eos M50), a 150/750 távcső és egy fókusznyújtó 2x barlow lencse olyan szűk látómezőt adott, hogy csak egy 8 képes mozaikkal fért bele a Hold. 😃 <br />
A panelekhez nem fotókat csináltam hanem videókat a több képkocka eléréséhez. A légkör szereti szétmosni a finom részleteket, ezért ez elengedhetetlen. További nehézség, hogy a távcsövet tartó mechanika nem követő, hanem egy sima EQ-3 ezért szépen kisétált a látómezőből az adott Holdrészlet. <br />
A végeredmény 400 képkocka lett panelenként és ezeknek a legjobb 50 képét egyesítettem. A kész képen a telítettséget 100%-al megemeltem, hogy a Hold ásványianyag tartalma előjöjjön. A szem erre nem érzékeny, de a modern szenzorok már igen.</p>

<p>The Széchenyi Chain Bridge (Széchenyi lánchíd), completed in 1849, is the first permanent stone bridge to span 375 metres across the Danube, uniting the cities of Buda and Pest.  Designed by English engineer William Tierney Clark and supervised by Scottish engineer Adam Clark, the suspension bridge was the brainchild of Count István Széchenyi, who sought to modernize Hungary’s infrastructure. Its design features two massive, Neoclassical triumphal arches through which the iron chains are threaded, anchored by four iconic stone lions sculpted by János Marschalkó. Though the bridge was largely destroyed by retreating German forces in 1945, it was meticulously rebuilt and reopened in 1949, exactly 100 years after its original inauguration and underwent a major restoration from 2021–2023.</p>
