Beautiful

Clouded over here..... 

The moon doing an impersonation of Mars Swoop ! Great picture mate.

I have been to our local observatory twice with a friend lately and on the last occasion we looked at the moon through the 7 inch refractor telescope. I could clearly see mountains, canyons and craters especially at the terminator. It was like looking through a heat haze off a hot road surface with everything dancing about which was down to Earths atmospherics I was told.

 

Thanks. It was cloudy here too. Or, more like hazy, and I had to wait for couple of hours without spotting the moon. I went home and took some photos from my balcony ?
