The Moon is a waxing gibbous
I was a bit surprised to see Earthshine.....
I took a couple of Moon videos and merged them into one. I used the 5X and 10X feature of Backyard EOS. It's just like being there ~ lol ;)
Took a few videos of Venus at different exposures. People often want to view Venus through the telescope and don't believe me when I describe it as "not much to see...." =)
The final video I made was a short one of Jupiter <3
I've got a goal to photograph (or at least attempt to photograph) ALL of the Messier objects. Tonight I got a few more "under my belt." Quite possibly will photograph them again when the Moon isn't so darn bright.
M53, a globular in Coma Berenices
M51, the Whirlpool Galaxy (one of my favorites for the evening =)
Last but not least.... M64, the Black Eye Galaxy
With regard to the viewing temperatures, I hate to complain about ~ 35 F, but that's a bit chilly for the end of March. Ready for warmer temperatures! :-)
