Moon from 29th Dec 2006

Here are some pics I captured last night while waiting for the pesky moon to disappear so I could try out my new NPB filter. The first image shows the "wall" of Rupes Recta (perfect timing to capture this feature). The second one shows some of the significant moountain ranges on the moon and Plato. The third image shows Clavius. The remaining images are of Copernicus and Eratosthenes.

All photos are handheld using a 2Mp Canon A40 point and shoot camera through my 12.5" dob using either a 19mm Panoptic or 8mm Radian eyepiece.
