Very nice! Here in the east, we have heard rumors that something like that is happening above the clouds :(
I hope it clears for you, we were fogged in tonight.

Excellent. Thanks so much for sharing the camera settings!
I have been trying with my D7200 + 70-300mm lens at max. and never tried a shutter speed of 1/60 sec. (fastest was 1/15). The planets were white smudges, though Jupiter's moons could be resolved.

great shot. I have been socked in by clouds all week. Hope to get a shot tonight.

That's great. I only have a 300, and I got a bright blob and a not-so-bright blob!

Looks good, thanks for sharing; all we could see here last night was a fuzzy blob (atmospheric conditions, moisture and clouds, haze), hope that cold front will clear things a bit for us. Hope to use the same lens or my home made telescope for some sort of image!!
