Bringing the Moon Indoors

image by François Doussoux, Paris, France


Sometimes it is just too much trouble to go out side to observe the Moon. Or it is too cold, or there are too many mosquitos. I don't know if these were factors influencing François, but he simply points his telescope out an open window and projects the Moon onto his ceiling. I can imagine sitting on the couch, comfortably leaning back to enjoy a very large full Moon little more than an arm's reach away, with Dubussy's soothing Chuck Wood

Technical Details:
03/28/2010. Pentax k10d @ 18 mm and 400 iso, 15 seconds exposure. Moon image with Newtonian 200 mm diameter equiped with a 24 mm eyepiece.
