94% waxing Moon with a Bridge Camera and AstroCrop

On the night of August 12-13, 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 100, f/5.9 at 1/500s. 111 images of the 94% waxing Moon were captured and precisely cropped in Nicola's AstroCrop. The cropped images were stacked and wavelet processed in Autostakkert! and the resulting image post processed in the Gimp 2.10 and Affinity Photo.
