Don’t Try This at Home

This one is not exactly a Full Moon, but it is close, on the other side of true Full. And it is likely the last Moon I will photograph for 2024 unless some ideal conditions open up.

Exposure is always hard with a near-Full Moon, and they are never as interesting as lesser discs which show off the Lunar crater formations. No guarantees but I will try to capture some of these Waning phases in early January.

Equipment Used:

  • 127mm Mak-Cass telescope
  • 23mm eyepiece
  • No eyepiece filter
  • iPhone 14 Pro
  • Smartphone telescope eyepiece adapter
  • NightCap app on iPhone
  • f/1.8
  • 1/5800 sec exposure
  • ISO 57
  • Focal length: 7mm
  • Touchups in PaintShop Pro and AfterShot Pro

Thank you for taking the time to read my article.

I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. At my blog, I explore these interests, and I hope you will join the conversation.
