More Moon images

A few images of the moon over the past couple of weeks. The lack of dark, and the weather is not helping my astronomy... Although I do now have a dual mount bar on the HEQ5 so the C80ED and the Konus are mounted side by side. This allows far more flexibility, so I could also mount the Skymax instead of the C80ED and guide that too now.

A couple of longer exposures with cloud about to see what sort of effects it produced





And I decided to get the C80ED out on the camera tripod for some Moon shots. These were all taken using a Kenko 2xTC. The 2" fittings compared to the Skymax means that I can get the blue sky colour and not have to deal with horrible vignetting.
