Over the Moon.
Hi all, Just thought I'd mention that I had some photos of the Moon published in the Astronomy 2010, so I am pretty chuffed about it.
The reason the images were published was due to this great resource we benefit from called Ice In Space.
The editor if Astronomy 2010 saw my images on IIS and asked permission to publish them in next years Book.
I was of course pretty stoked at the request, seeing I only image with very very basic equipment.
The images show the variance in Moon Libration Minimum and Maximum which the weather allowed me to capture at the best times for the events.
If anyones interested the images are on page 43.
Thx for looking and thanks to everyone who helps and contirbutes to this great forum. We are so lucky to have it.
Geoffro

I took the images with a little 4.5 inch MEADE Newt. and they were taken afocally with my little canon IXUS 70 camera as I always do due to my limited funds for equipment.
Cheers to all
