It was a bit risky to take this as its still on east side of meridian, and north too, and that's where all the bad light pollution is, but i think i lucked out! a combination of very good flats, and a good "light pollution gradient" removal technique, got me a solid shot.

The weather finally allowed me to take a closer look at the moon last night. It's been months since the moon was this clear and bright so it was a perfect opportunity for some improvised testing of my first telescope (D = 150 mm / F = 1200 mm).
Seeing the moon like this up close with your own eyes is such a great experience, with so many details revealing themselves. Mountains along the edge revealing their shape against the blackness of space. Dozens of tiny craters grouped together in small clusters. Mountain ranges protruding from a seemingly flat landscape.
Please note that this and all the other pictures were taken by holding up a small compact camera to the eyepiece, so it's way more blurry/shaky than it really was. I should get a proper camera mount...

1 Year on from when our group first started thinking about taking images of our night sky. I'm so happy with the results we are now getting.
