Luna

After failed attempt to capture the lunar eclipse in the winter of 06-07’ due to cloud cover I decided to stick around and capture some shots of the beautifull full moon once the clouds had cleared. Wasn’t gonna pack out a 100lb telescope for nothing!! :) I hope to do more astrophotography the scope. Galaxys, nebula, and such. It is really a crime that I haven’t used it as much as I should. Enjoy!

Shot with Nikon D200,
1/400th sec. F-0
through
Meade LXD 75 SN8 Telescope.

    Amazing moon capture… Love the impact crater and the debris you can see streaking across the moon’s surface. Just awesome.
