Very nice video Tom. The seeing was quite reasonable - I haven't seen seeing like that forever at my place!

That's a lovely image of the waxing gibbous Moon, Tom!

I like it a lot, especially for a single frame.

You've been doing some fine work lately!

This image is now IOTW.

Hey thanks Mike for the IOTW, very much appreciated
Thanks Liz, Darrin, Ray and Troy. I shot this in RAW so was able to get the most out of the single exposure, then used selective sharpening in Photoshop to regain some detail in the fully lit areas.
