Description

The clouds in southern Ohio broke just in time to see pleione and atlas set behind the lunar disk illuminated by earthshine. The sky was still hazy, so I was unable to get a crisp photo, but at least the event was visible. Exposure was 1/5th second at 1600iso with Canon Digital Rebel at prime focus. Scope is 127mm diameter f/7 APO.
