I felt like chicken last night, so I did.
Really good seeing until about 11pm when thin high level stuff started appearing in the moonlight - oh that damned Moon! Brighter than the sun shining out of ...yeah, there. Had to give it a go anyway.
14 x 600sec OSC STF-8300 shots (scope: FSQ-85EDX "Baby Q"), with an Optolong 48mm CLS filter and Baader UV/IR. Seemed to do a pretty reasonable job handling the buzzillion candlewatts of farking LED street lighting, airport/runway/HIAL lighting and a 3/4 Luna. Then the upper level thin vapour, then the dew running off everywhere (this is why I hard-wax my scopes - dew RUNS off) then solid cottonwool fluffy cloud. Packing up saw dew everywhere, with me breathing steam...not even Autumn YET Canberra lol.
So, it is what it is - I included the shots through the thin vapour clouds, so this may account for a little "haze", as well as that damned big reflective rock in the sky. Only the brave (or moronic) shoot OSC with a Moon
Fulls size, warts n all:

Enjoy the contrast destroying moon glow
