Here is a afocal picture I took last night while playing around with a f6.3 corrector/reducer. It was just nice to get outside and peak at luna for a little while, it has been way too cloudy lately...

Quote: I especially like the way the darkness of the space grabs the good old Moon by the edge...
I sometimes gets the impression the Moon is dissolving into space along the dark limb. Although I suppose a more appropriate illusion - for the waxing Moon - would be that it is reconstituting itself.
