    Benny, can you check if your moon is upside down? my moonphase calendar suggests it should the other way round.
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    Like this?



    If I recall correctly, my camera was not right side up when I took the picture. Was trying vertical, horizontal and in the end, even a upside down shot because of the low angle from my house window. Moon was already too high.

    Cheers,

    It was taken with the 500 mm, double stacked with the 1.4X and 2X teleconverters.

    I was changing water. As usual.

    Another shot at the moon...

    Since it was such a nice cloudless sky...



    I think full moon shots are not as atmospheric.

    Here's a bit of photoshop fun...



    Inverted the picture and adjusted the hue. Looks like egg yolk dipped in sweet sauce?
