The Moons of July 2011

Hi everyone,

Last month during Brisbane's fine weather and starting 2nd July, I managed to image the moon every day except for Full, the day after Full, and one day before New, throughout its orbit. The days I couldn't get were due to cloud. Each of these was taken with a Canon EOS 550D at prime focus of a 12" Sky-Watcher Dobsonian, untracked.

My work schedule of evenings, mornings and night shifts, the weather, and the flexibility of setting up the scope and taking the shot in 5 minutes or less, all conspired to allow me time and opportunity to get these images.

There are many ways of exhibiting the month of Moons, and this is one of them

Thanks for looking.

Tom
