Anyone get any good shots of Mars with the Moon last night?
Here are my offerings.
1. waiting for the moon to come up above the trees.
f/3.2, 3sec, ISO-200
2. Mars and Moon. I think the green spot is a reflection of the moon off my gutter :shrug:. Either that or the martians are comming :ship2:
f/3.5, 2sec, ISO-200
3. the Moon.
f/3.6, 1/125sec, ISO-64
All taken on my trusty FinePix S5600 on a flimsy tripod. :P
As a visual report I could see some nice detail along the terminator.
In Mare Fecunditatis the sunlight was catching Dorsa Geikie early on and I watched it disappear as the night went on.
Similarly in Mare Crisium, Dorsum Oppel stood out along with some smaller craters.
I tried some simple sketches but i'll keep them to myself ;)
