Greetings -
The close approach of the moon and jupiter Wednesday night was a spectacular wide field view through my 4" refractor. Thinking with half a mind after a day at work I figured I could catch in in my Nikon digital SLR - but forgot that while it looks just like a 35mm camera, the frame is about 2/3 the size. So here is the bigger half of that tight pair - one quick exposure through my A/P traveler with 2x barlow projection on an altazimuth mount. Did anyone catch both on film (or a bigger chip?)
best,
Alan Friedman
