The Boxing day crescent Moon stood still in a Pembrokeshire blue sky, I had to capture the moment.
Within five minutes the telescope was all set up and ready to go.
The evening was cold, the clouds were nearby, I had maybe ten minutes to grab a few images.
The Mare Crisium stood out well, the photo below shows some of the craters of Crisium and surrounding area.
Here's a more detailed image with some labelling of the major craters.
Cleomedes, Burckhardt and Geminus return beautiful black rim shadows at this part of the lunation.
