astropete Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 here is one of my moon shots. this one is orientated correct, most of my moon shots are a mirror image due to the optics of my 127mm scope. i realise that this pic is on the wrong forum, but its just a taster..... pete.http://stargazerslounge.com/members/astropete-albums-moon-picture3074-lunapic-125534959237210.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
