    I forgot to mention that one of my images was featured on EarthSky.org back in January! I am so stoked!:D:D

    Here's a wild one I shot yesterday with quadruple reflections and the 'Blue-Moon!'

    My weirdo camera chose it's own settings! It flat-out refused to obey the settings I gave it. So I figured it knew what it was doing.

    I think it did! Smart, little gadget!*

    @Mak the Night it's boring here too.. in 4 days vacations there was not a night for astronomy, too much wind and clouds... Tonight perhaps, usually the night before work is a good one.

    For a full moon with #38a and #47 wratten observation. Perfect conditions to use these 2 filters

    It's precarious here too, all covered with couds right now and no forecast for a clear sky. Plus the moon will be high later in the night..

    Tonight will end up being a TV night.
