The moon, tonight, with my New Absurd Lens

[fivemack]

It's near-enough full moon, so the rays from the craters are particularly visible; click on the image to get a bigger version with labels. The moon looks about as big as a shelduck two hundred feet away, so I'm expecting to get some quite nice pictures when I have spare time on a sunny weekend and go over to Fen Drayton lakes.

It's the universally-well-reviewed Tamron 150-600; it weighs two and a bit kilos, it's sufficiently stabilised that I could take that moon picture hand-held. Taking a picture of Jupiter produced a resolved but unimpressive result.

Try again on Jupiter with multiple images and Registax.
