Hi everyone,

Not my sort of astrophotography (as you can see) - but there was a photo-opportunity tonight of Mercury close to the crescent Moon.

This is an average of 10 images taken on the Canon 40D using the 28 - 200 mm zoom lens. I took around 240 images in all, I'll take a look at the rest tomorrow. Going to bed now

Greg

Nice capture, Greg. I'd been wondering what you were up to!

Bob.

Sorry everyone - I have no idea why the image has gone completely dark - something to do with working on this at midnight. I will repost later, hopefully with a better image.
