I looked out my window just as a break in the clouds revealed The 2% lit waxing crescent Moon, so luckily I was able to capture this image, shortly after the clouds closed and the Moon was again obscured. Canon EOS 750D ISO 1600,f6.7@1/90th Sec Sigma 18/250 Lens @ 250mm Taken at 21.00hrs 13.04.21 Jpeg from a RAW file Diane Clarke Belvedere[/caption]
I took this picture while preparing to image NLC's as the night was clear and quite mild, Venus became visible as the sky darkened & before it got lost in the late evening twilight, I did not see any NLC although they had been reported elsewhere in the UK. The picture was taken at 22.00 although somehow the camera's clock was 4 minuets fast Canon EOS 750D Static tripod Canon Macro Lens EF 100mm f 5.6 @ 1/60, ISO 400 12.06.21 22.00hrs[/caption]
