The Moon last night

Last night, I went to our field where we observe and was welcomed by rising mist becoming real fog.
But the Moon was also there, rising. A car arrived, of course the driver totally unaware of the presence of desperate star-gazers. Taken with the Sony DSC-V1; We barely see the silhouette of the farm on the right.

Later, back home in Antwerp, the sky was much clearer and I got the ETX90 (equatorial mounted) with the ToUcam Pro webcam and there are interesting features such as:

Langrenus with its central peak:
