looking to the moon...

yup, dispite my lack of motivation astronomically i still look up and look at naked eye stuff often. the other night the moon was near antares so i snapped a quickie... of course this shot has been faked as antares wasnt THAT close but i thought i'd post anyhow.

3 frames stacked in r5. taken with a nikon d40 at 500mm.

It was a pretty conjunction. I didn't even think to take a picture. Thanks David.
