Just for Show Another Moon Shot...

[Douglas McMann]

Yet another snap of our solitary moon, as it hurtled overhead about 2,800 mph....

Canon 5D attached to my scope, fitted with a nice new eyepiece...

Nice bit of panning, Dougie!

Definitely clearer that the last and I like that you have presented it off-centre. It balances well I think.

It's not "another" moon, Dougie. I hate to be the on to break it to you, but it's the same moon every night

Crackin shot, though!

Ignore him, Dougie. what does he know. If that were the case, why is there a new moon every month?!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Ah...you've got me there!

Very true Pete...but at the risk of being picky, it's actually every 28 days...

A great image and you didn't fall for the temptation of going over the moon as a Scot apparently did.

Nice shot Douglas

Incredible clarity Doug and always a fascinating subject.
