Hi - one image from last night's session of a nice lunar crater near the
terminator; 60 km wide. Great evening till the heavy dew set in (fog to
my north).


Great image Rod!

After reading a recent post by Roland Christen (owner of Astro Physics)
about using his personal 10-inch Mak at 600+ power at the Winter Star Party
to see *detail* on the moons of Jupiter, I'm even more convinced that I have
to get down to Florida for some high-rez imaging.

I had hoped to do some lunar observing/imaging last night, but, alas, just a
dark high cloud moved in.
