Waxing Gibbous

The first image taken with my newly pimped-out, 50-year-old, 8-inch Newtonian--hand-built back in the day. The telescope is now equipped with a computerized GOTO drive and auto-guiding system with a Canon 60Da DSLR camera. This image was taken at prime focus. (See below for full-resolution link.)
