This is the Moon 5 days into
the lunar cycle taken about 45 minutes before sunset. The
"haziness" of the image is due to the fact that the sky was still
illuminated by sunlight. It is a mosaic of 6 different
images stitched together using Photoshop CS3. It was taken through
my friends backyard telescope.
- ISO: 400
- F/16
- 1/250 second
- Direct image through a 12-inch classical cassigrain.
