With a brief break in cloud cover over the new forest, I was able to handhold a shot or two of the moon with my new Canon R5 and 100-400mm lens. The massive image resolution allows some pretty incredible cropping to be done and I'm really happy with how much detail can be seen. 

Still waiting for my replacement tripod to arrive, I once again decided to do some handheld shots of the moon.

Today I discovered that my new apartment's lounge windows offer a great viewing spot for the moon on those rare days when it is not covered by Gothenburg's near-permanent grey clouds.

Sunday evening was a cold clear night and a half-moon over Gothenburg. I got out my 1D MkIII, 100-400mm Zoom and 2x extender and took it out into the cold of my garden.

Its been quite some time since I did any astrophotography, but my new 100-400 lens has been waiting for the nights to get dark enough to start trying to catch the moon again.

It has been a while since I had the chance to get my telescope out, and with the batteries in the spotter and the motors dead, finding anything other than the moon would have been difficult.
