Moon, Antares, M4 & Earthshine - all in one!

Hello

I grabbed some images of M4 and Antares tonight, to make a mosaic with yesterday’s close conjunction (low in the west with horrid light pollution and gradients). At the same time, I dug up an old LPI mosaic of the full moon and mixed them all up in Corel PhotoPaint.

It’s a little rough and ready, but I might play some more tomorrow to see if I can improve on this somewhat artistic interpretation.

Cheers

Dennis
