Reflected Sunlight- Moon 17th March '19

Post by Carbon60 »

After a day of mostly clouds, surprisingly the evening turned out pretty clear, providing a nice opportunity to grab some time imaging the moon. Click to follow the link to my Flickr account for the hi-res version.

Good looking Moon shot,Stu. It's been quite a while since I've imaged the Moon. This might be the motivation I need.
Thanks,

Phil
