The Moon and Saturn
Last night the Moon made a close approach to Saturn, close enough that I could fit them both in my scopes FOV. I love when you can make these relative size comparisons shots

Thanks for looking

That's really cool. What were the exposure settings?

Just wait until 14th May and then 4th August - the Moon will pass in front of Saturn!
Great perspective image!

It was a HDR composite of a few shots around 1/250s ISO400 at f7.6 through my 100ED.
