The Moon 04.03.2012

As last night wasn't suitable for any deep sky photography due to the moon light pollution i have decided to have a go at the moon itself.



I was ignoring our closes partner for a while now so was enjoying the views last night.Plus i got a chance to try out my new OTA which i got from Michael (thanks again for that) and was more than satisfied with it.Use to have 60mm Jason one (if anyone heard about them) with integrated EP wheel so this was quite an improvement with a luxury to choose my plossils.Even tho its only 70mm Jupiter and Mars looked gorgeous thru my 12mm Edmund RKE. Over all I had a very good night of observing.

nice shot there, the moon was awesome last night, we were up till past midnight looking at it with the 12" and binoviewers, schroters valley and the area around it were super. !

That's a really nice image Martin, with excellent detail and lighting. Glad to hear that you are enjoying the scope.
