M 45 (Pleiades)and Moon conjunction

WOW!,did everyone enjoy this lovely conjunction!

Personally,I found the view through 15 by 80 Vixen Binos on a tripod

most beautifull,and easily equal to coment Mc Naught,as a memorable

item.

Here are a few pics,that I took with Vixen ED 81 on alt-taz mount.

I had to move up the hill(,see pic),out of the observatory,it was windy

and no EQ mount,But I was happy with these images,and a few of set up for you.

I hope these are of interest.

cheers Chris PS,did anyone get any data on Atlas graze?I am still going through my pics.it looked close.
