43.4% waxing Moon with a Bridge camera and AstroCrop

A Lumix DMC-FZ72 60x optical zoom (equivalent to F=1200mm in 35mm) bridge camera was placed on a static tripod and was set to ISO 400, f/5.9 at 1/640s. 106 images of the 43.4% crescent Moon were captured. The images were precisely cropped in Nicola's AstroCrop and were stacked and wavelet processed in Registax 5.1 and the resulting image post processed in the Gimp 2.10 and Affinity Photo.
