Hi all

Here is a latest attempt at lunar photography.
I was shooting through a lot of tree branches and
a serious ground haze. The haze diminished somewhat
later. I did an unsharp mask with the Gimp.
Not the best, I will reprocess this week along with
two other shots taken at same time.

I spent the rest of the night looking at R Leporos
for several hours and at several different magnifications
(in the trees of course...) and finally Saturn at right
under 300x for at least an hour.{probably got only 10 - 15
min stable seeing, well worth it !!)
Best consistent views were right under 200x.
