Moon in the Sky

I just finished giving a talk to the Central Pennsylvania Observers annual star party at Cherry Springs State Park, one of the darkest places in the Eastern US. My talk was The Most Fascinating Object in the night sky - you can guess which object that might be. So this is a perfect night to not analyze and interpret, but to simply admire a beautiful near dawn view of the Moon and other objects decorating the sky over a castle. Thanks, Dani!
