A May Moon
/A May Moon
An Uncharacteristically clear May night for the deep south. Not used to getting this sort of clarity here in the warmer months, usually our humidity is insane by now.
I shot this w/ a Celestron 8 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. Normally, it is 2032mm @ f10, using a focal reducer drops the aperture to f/6.3 (which aides clarity and brightness) but at the cost of reducing the magnification to 1280mm. This was shot with an iPhone 6 in eyepiece projection.
