PA Lunar X 8-8-08       #2569575 - 08/08/08 11:14 PM Attachment (29 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Finally a nice clear cool night here in PA. Couldn't resist having a look at the moon. I've seen a few shots of the X posted here but never actually got to view it live so to speak. Well tonight all the conditions came together. Just a quick afocal capture. Enjoy and hope everyone else got a chance to view. -------------------- Scott M. Olympus E-510 Canon G9 & 40D Coronado PST Stellarvue 80ED Orion XT8I Dob.
