I'm a bit fascinated by the moon. Here's the first quarter (orientation is just how I feel at the time):

I've another three quarters to go yet.

Steve, it's the K series 35mm f3.5, a very compact lens that snuggles a telescope eyepiece nicely.

I think the weather is about to break, dr. Still your practice has paid off as these shots are great.

Nice shots

I am also impressed with your lens/ telescope combo

Isn't it really weird that there are no signs of any of the moon buggies etc the Americans claim to have left behind - oh dear I feel a backlash on it's way

Cheers

I'm seriously jealous of the DoF you've managed to get on the later (7 & 8 day) images. Mine always go out of focus towards the edge ( I focus on the terminator )

Very nice set.
Getting there! Thanks to you guys
