Moon, Mars

wolf moon (+1 day)

Mars at Opposition

I was hoping to set my camera at the prime focus of my telescope, but dew settled in before I had finished observing and that ended hopes for a late-night astrophotography session. I piggybacked my camera + 200mm 2.8 upon the telescope to capture what I could. We're hoping to spend the new moon outside the light dome of the city, so more to come.

Thanks for the positive feedback, I'm hoping to pursue such photography a bit more into the future.

Went to an experimental music performance down at the cave at the Bemis last weekend. Kept thinking about how I'd rather be hearing your stuff. Hope you're well.
