Good one Gaz. The moon's not getting high so seeing is always going to mess up your focus. It looks spot on to me. Was this with a toucam or afocal?

Gaz good shot , as Martin says its hard where the moon is a t the moment focus will be a prob

Toucam mate, I could never quite feel the focusing "snap" if you know what I mean?
