If I had had at lest a Barn Door on a tripod, I cold have shot them with my
trusty Topcon Super D and could have switched lens too.

Hello All:

I am seeing a spectecular view of the new moon with a planet neraby
here in Northern California.

Are there any places on Internet that may have a photo of this?


A friend of mine shot this last night:

Very nice. Will have to get myself a digital camera one of these days. I
took a few photos of the moon/venus last night the old fashioned way, but
had guessed at 2 and 3 second exposures, so they might not come out. Will
see in an eon when the film's full.

Regards,
