Moon Watching
Last night i took the 20x80 Bino's out and tried to image the moon with my digital ( it was a flat bust as too much light was hitting the CCD). So with my daughter we decided to look at the moon which was a nice 1st Quarter which she enjoyed and wanted to know when the scope was arriving !
