October Moon was created by johnomahony
At this time of the year, the Moon is practically overhead in Sydney and the atmosphere fairly steady. A great time to point a scope and DSLR through the steady air.
This shot is a single frame taken last night with a Canon 7D and 8" Meade SCT at F10. ISO 100 for 1/40 second just after sunset. The image has been enhanced a bit in PS elements.

Wow, what a photo. I can even see the Lunar "X" near the terminator -a feature we saw in Dublin on Friday night.
