Hello
Inspired by the image posted by Rolph, on the las new Moon I gave it a try
from Cajon del Maipo, at about 50Km from Santiago de Chile.
At first, seeing was very bad, due to some fog in the air. All my equipment became ver wet...
I was about giving up, but the suddenly temp went down and all cleared up.
Temp was so cold that when it was time to clear up, my tripod legs where frozen together....
Here a link to higher res image:
