Afocal Moon 3rd May. Rupes Recta
Hi all,

I took some nice images in steady seeing on 3rd May with a good mate, through a 10 inch Dob with a really nice mirror set to see what they would be like.

I am happy with the results through Rick Petrie's scope.
Just my normal Canon IXUS 70 compact digital camera with a bracket holding it to the eyepiece. exposures were ranging from 1/3oth sec to 1/100th sec. Cant remember what this one is but it shows the Wall " Rupes Recta " very well. This wall is about 140 klm long from what I can work out.


Thx for looking again.
