Nice set of images. I did spot the moon yesterday, between heavy rain squalls, but it was hiding behind the trees from my garden

thanks Michael, its been very hit or miss here mate, the weathers been against this year in the uk so lastnights seeing was a surprise, I should of swapped to the 120mm for the closer shots as old faithful dos better than the 102mm at the higher mags. clear skys. charl.

Great set of images Charl, sky was really good here after midnight last night and I was tempted to have a shot at that Moon but didn't want to remove the comet setup from the SCT.

Had to make do with admiring it through bin's.

Nice work Charl. My view of the moon was a bit sketchy last night so I gave it a miss. Pity really as the seeing looks to have been better than the previous night when I did a bit.

thanks Swoop, yes the seeing was much better than the 8th and I was not dogged by cloud, makes it easy work mate. charl.
