This is the picture that I couldn't get to load on Facebook. It's taken with my DSLR, in manual mode, using a 70-300mm lens (1:4-5.6) with skylight filter. ISO 200, F8, 1/400.

Wow, that's awesome! You have one of the best pics I've seen. And thinks for posting your lens/setting. I was going to ask you. :)

Excellent! I will have to show Thomas. HE tried to set up the telescope last night but the clouds were in the way.

Jessica's science fair project = done! Many nights her observations were "cloudy, can't see anything". She had 6/12 nights she was able to see the moon and 4/12 nights she could see stars.

He loved it!!! thanks so much for posting. Also someone shared a clip on FB but since it's not mine I wont be resharing. It was the tidal Bore in the Bay of Fundy after the Super Moon. It was amazing!:)
