What started out as a reasonably clear night soon clouded over once I had my mount polar aligned and started focussing. So having nothing to do I decided a shot of the moon would be the sensible thing to do through heavy cloud. So here is a 1 minute exposure of the moon using a ST-8300 through an ED127 binned 2x2 and 1/4 screen. Also a 5 sec shot 1x1 through lighter cloud. These two were my total exposures after an hour of setting up:mad2:
