Heres the standard I was expecting; and the poor results from the eclipse;

Not taken recently, but digiscoped using a tripod at 1/250 @ f5.3 in the Australian outback. The clear desert skies helped considerably - the light from the moon was almost blinding to eyes adjusted to the dark.


Hey, even the moon is upside down is aussie!
