Thanks everyone for the nice comments.
First apologies to the mods for my slip up with the title. Thanks RB for sorting that out. I've further edited the title.

AstralTraveller You obviously had darker skies than me.

David,
This location is less than 10 mins drive from home out just past the edge of the city but has a sky brightness of just 21.0 mag per arc sec. It's on the edge of the city looking west & southwest, the next big sources of light come from Wagga, Albury etc. They are building a large housing development in the area so I expect the sky brightness to jump up a bit.

Peter Ward. Great shot Joe. I was torn as to whether to go for the nightscape approach or simply filling the frame with the moon. Ideally both
You certainly nailed the nightscape version with this one

Thanks Peter. I did a lot of closeups during the January eclipse, This one being so close to the horizon and at twilight lent itself more to nightscape. I have many more images from later as the sky brightened but haven't touched them yet.
cheers
Joe
