Conjunction last between the moon and M45. Went out with the Rokinon 135mm telephoto with the thought of imaging Comet Pons-Brooks, but hi-cirrus was pouring in and blocked that. Got a quick shot of the moon before it was completely blocked too, but still fuzzy. Really short 0.2 sec subs at f2, only 10, so not too many stars captured, got the seven and a few more. Mounted the lens and Asi1600mc camera on my ancient
CG-4. Will try for the comet tonight if it clears.
Clear skies,
Steve

Nice Steve, good for you on getting that! I wanted to give it a shot as well, but my skies were even worse than yours
Thanks for the share and all the best,
