LPOD of the Year - 2004

Thanks! everyone!,

As I have said before it's at least 90 percent seeing conditions, there are a lot of good imagers in this forum Lunar and otherwise and many Lunar imagers I consider to be better at it than I am.
One thing I think I can predict with certainty for 2005 is that there will be a lot of great images posted in this forum by a lot of great people.

Clear And Steady Skies,

Hi Paul,

Great shot of a huge sunspot, this morning while I was driving my car I looked up at the sun (just for a couple of seconds) through the clouds and I could easily see a large dark spot not to far off of the limb and I knew that must be a giant sunspot, I'm glad to see that you imaged it.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
