Last evening, I found myself compelled to gaze at the full moon. It was beautiful, surrounded as it was by a colorful ring of light, and with clouds passing across its face. I took some woefully inadequate pictures with my digicam - this is just about the best of them:
Later, my husband, moved by the same compulsion to gaze at the moon, pulled the telescope out of its dusty corner and set it up. The following pics were taken with the digicam through the telescope in my back yard.
I'll have to get some batteries for my 35 mm SLR. I'd love to see what it can do with this kind of a shot!

Doesn't it look like the moon is bouncing?
I too could not take my gaze away from the moon last night. I wondered when it had been quite so beautiful. Looks like you got the scoop, what great photo's for a digital, not bad.
Peace
