Feb 6 Moon

A few nice moons images I found:

The moon was almost directly overhead for this photo. That made clamping the camera to the eyepiece a bit awkward, which is why the moon isn't quite facing the right direction. Also, I had to rush to beat the clouds.

Compare yesterday's shot.

I need to do some experimentation with my different eyepieces and see what provides the flattest field and the least chromatic aberration. This one was shot through a 25mm Kellner
