Hi all I took this image with the moon at 95 percent,I have not managed to get all of it due to the 585 sensor on my Skywatcher 80ed with a 0.6 reducer.I did 2 minutes subs for 60 minutes given me 30 images.I thought I would share.Thanks for looking.

Very nice Andy!

Last night I was doing some binocular observing under the bright orb, it adds a layer of challenge :)

Hi Jeff yes I agree the orb makes it a challenge with it's own light pollution,I only use a Ovl light pollution filter on my 2 inch reducer and a Ir filter close to the sensor on the camera.I hope you had a good observing session with your binoculars.
Thanks
Andy
