| | | Last night's almost Full Moon
Yesterday's almost full moon inspired me to get my new tripod out & take a few creative shots.
These first four are taken within 2 minutes of each other at 17:45pm.
Lovely corona that was then gone very quickly, so I picked the right moment to take them.    
These were taken at 20:30pm.
I was very surprised to see part of Orion in the first one, so I took a second specifically of Orion.   
Can't wait to get my scope.

The full-on lighting of a full moon doesn't show up the details well. Better images can be had with a 'part' moon where the crater shadows show greater detail.
