There is a repeating theme this week – clear and calm temperatures, with every clear night revealing more of the Moon to see and photograph.

This week’s lunar trek continues with another evening of clear sky and an easier target.

Another clear night, another clear shot at May’s Waxing Crescent Moon in the evening sky after Sunset. Taken with my 127mm Mak-Cass telescope and iPhone 14 Pro with NightCap.

After nearly a month of waiting through overcast and wildfire smoke haze, I had a chance to see and photograph May’s young crescent Moon.

Very clear skies this early morning offered a prime opportunity to observe and photograph a nearly Full Moon.

Despite the colder temperatures and increasing wind, I used my homemade Dobsonian telescope tonight to photograph the Moon approaching Full.

I have not posted an image of the Moon since last year, for a variety of reasons, but here is a good one from this past cycle in late February 2023.

Tonight was my first opportunity to try photographing the Moon with my new iPhone. All in all, it went well, I think, for this inaugural attempt.
