This second shot was taken at f11 and 1/60th, ISO200, with just the bare 420mm lens.

Anyone else out there watching the skies tonight?

Do you think it is really true that all the mental people become restless on a full moon, and if so, are they even dafter on a lunar eclipse????

Thanks Jeanette, I managed to crack off a couple of frames tonight as well, in between the clouds. Got a bit more detail by switching to manual focus, I think:

Any closer and you'd be able to see the man who lives up there.

My parents lived in Ceylon for several years. Apparently the people there say it's a rabbit.
