Hey Guys.

Here's a few snaps I took last night of the Constellations basking in the Moon light.

Well done Roy.
Can easily make out those.
You did well to get anything
with that Moon there.
Looks like youd pick up some decent detail
when its not up.
Given the location its a great sequence.

Very nice work Roy. I especially liked the Plough image with the pole/cable/tree. The handle of the Plough skirting the outline of the tree I thought was well constructed and effective. Also your image nicely caught the separation of Alcor and Mizar in the 'handle'.
You might consider an image of the ISS passing through Orion or an Iridium flare? As you probably know www.heavens-above.com will give precise details for your own observing site.
