This morning's moon

It isn't great, as there is basically no contrast at all - I had a heck of a time getting it in the frame, it was barely visible in the viewfinder. I might have a chance later this evening to get a better shot, if it is still up. The ISS is doing another flypast, so if I can stand the cold, I will try and catch it again. Hopefully, a bit brighter than it was last time around!

This one *is* a little bit, errm, 'blue'... I was trying to do *anything* to bring out some contrast.

Yeah, I'll try that next time. It was so faint, that I am not sure anything would have worked this morning. I wouldn't have even seen it, but I was taking some photos at church, and it was *there* in the frame...

Oh, and I should have realised, with the left-hand side illuminated, it was obviously going to set before the sun did, so I couldn't catch it this evening.

I didn't get the ISS either, but I did try my hand at some star shots. Once I get thawed out, I will go check them out. If any are not too embarrassing, I will post them later...
