Big lunar mosaic 2.6d Moon (April 8th 2008) new
      #2337728 - 04/19/08 07:04 AM

Here's a lunar mosaic from the 8th April. C-14 @ prime focus, Lumenera SKYnyx 2-0M camera and Astronomic red filter. A novelty for me as it's not often such a young Moon can be seen over neighbouring trees!

Shown at 50% original linear size...
