G'day Andrew.

Was this a daytime Moon shot ?

Beautiful daylight shot of the lunar terminator!

I have sketched that region many times as I recognized many of the half-lit crater walls in your photo.

Nice work Andrew. Did you use a barlow? I'm surprised you couldn't fit the whole moon in at prime focus?

Shot was taken about 4 pm. Camera was attached to Megrez 90 with EOS t-ring, 40mm spacer and 2" camera adaptor. this image is an enlarged portion of original.

Hi Geoffro,
Only posted this portion of an already cropped section (complete moon, 1.6 meg) of a 6 meg photo. - how big a file can you post?

Nice effort!! Looks similar to some I took today.
