Default Our Moon 6/11/08

Hi All.
I have not been out for a long time. So tonight I got out for a long look of the Moon and Saturn. My Saturn photos did not turn out but here are two Moon photos. They were taken using the etx 125 and the sony cybershot 7 with a 18 mm lens. Cleaned up in photoshop cs2

Thanks group.
Between Work and some health issues I have not been able to get the vixen outdoors, but I am working on getting a set of casters for the tripod so I can just roll it outside. The 5 inch sure comes in handy when you cant lift a lot of weight.

The weather here is like most places lately, cloudy and rain with just a peek of the night sky from time to time. Again thanks and clear skies Paul

Lovely pics Paul. Nice and sharp.

Thanks for sharing.

(And good luck with your rollers/casters. Sound improvisation.)
