Once again, upon returning home I was greeted with the (near) full moon through the balcony doors. So I quickly set up the AT80EDL to take a few shots. It was rather low in the sky (~17o alt) and as such seeing was fairly rough. But here are the results, starting with the full disk:

and then setting the zoom EP to maximum:

I couldn't just let it go unimaged though, right? wink.gif

Nice shots Gary!  Might do the same tonight.  Haven't seen the sun in seems like a week, so may as well check out the moon / planets!
