Well there is certainly a nice bright high moon tonight, go have a look if you haven't seen it yet.
There is a nice big wide field of view with that scope/camera combination, the glow around the moon adds to the atmosphere,
Make sure you give Dave McD a good vacuum cleaner to keep that bright carpet clean in the observatory :lol:
