Hi guys

Spent about an hour observing this area tonight. The isolated mountains to the upper left of plato were casting spectacular shadows into the terminator. Had to try and take a pic..a little blurry but you have to start somewhere.

For a handheld shot at that magnification you done a great job...impressive :D

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680
