Some Moon photos
Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2008 11:54 pm
I am still working on getting the focus just right. These were taken on Feb 12 with the Canon EOS 400D attached to the Meade LXR 200 -- 10" telescope. Any opinions on the focus?
What I like about this kind of shot is that it makes me imagine what it would be like if you were approaching the Moon in a spacecraft --- when you are just that distance when the Moon is so close that you can only see a portion of it through the spacecraft window.
