I stepped outside this morning to begin the process of covering my gear after a long night of imaging and found the moon peeking through a gap in the bush next to my scope, so I grabbed a quick set of images to close-out the first full night of testing my new camera. Unfortunately, the sky is veiled with smoke from wild fires burning in British Columbia, but it was still a very pretty sight.
