Lunacy

OK, so I have "Newscopeitis" as well, but like a few others I have neglected the moon in favour of the giant(s).
So in a moment of lunacy the other night (19th) I shot a few. Partly it was to try out the new scope, and partly to reaquaint myself with old Luna.
Scope was MN76, with 2.5x Powermate, and the ToUcam. Seeing was about 6/10, with moments at the eyepiece after approaching 7-8/10. I especially got a kick with the bino viewer later, before the fog closed things down anyway.
I have a few others but you get the idea.
