Tonight's eight day old Moon, captured (afocal) with my Tal1 Newtonian.
In folklore this month's Moon is sometimes called the "Seed Moon", well

greenhouse sowing our garden seeds.
The deckchairs will be out tomorrow night for some Lyrid meteor observing.
I wonder how much of the event will be washed out by the gibbous Moon..?....
