Default Moon with Nikon D300

Hi,

A long time between images these days. Had a 'reasonable' night with high haze & a little smoke from forestry regeneration burn off's.

Wanted to see some results from the D300 on the Takahashi FS-102. These are taken as Fine Large JPG at 400 ISO. A prime focus shot and one with an old 2X Nikon Teleconverter. The slight brownish tinge is due to smoke haze.

Regards,
Shevill
