Crescent Moon
Captured on the 9th of May.

Taken with my Celestron 8SE SCT f/6.3 and Canon 450D. A 1/15 second exposure at ISO 100. Processed with PS CS3. Reduced to 1200 pixels.

Thanks for looking.

Matty, that is a beautiful image indeed, love the tone, and the detail is nice and sharp, I'm not much of a Planetary person, but that one really stands out, well done.

Thanks guys I really appreciate it.

Andrew, I wouldn't say that it was the exact colour but it looked very similar at the time.
