I was out from 8.15 until 9.15 pm with the Tecnosky 102ED F7.  Janssen was as well placed to see the interior detail as I have ever seen it.  Rheita Valley, not far to the E , was also very well placed.  I had superb views early on when the seeing was excellent for a few mts and the detail was staggering, though this only lasted for around half an hour.  It was a 4.2 day Moon with illumination of 18.4%.

Below is a single frame with the Olympus E-M5 Mk11 at 8.33 pm, and a crop including Janssen and the Rheita Valley.  It shows how favourable Janssen was placed, but the detail through the binoviewer was far better!
