Full Moon


Click Image for Larger Version

I feel as though the full moon deserves an image unto itself, despite its inclusion in the Phases montage above. The image was taken on October 16, 2005, with the SBO 16" telescope at CU Boulder, using my Canon EOS Digital Rebel hooked up to where the eyepiece would be (prime focus). It is a stitched panorama of about 40 images each taken for 1/80 sec, and the mosaic was originally 100" on a side. Clicking on the image above will give you one that's 10" on a side.
