A beautiful waning moon when I woke up this morning. Not as nice as the view as the astronauts on Artemis 2 got though. Can't wait to see the high definition images from their photography!

The Leo Triplet, one of the more recognizable Galaxy season targets. Made up of the Hamburger Galaxy, M66 and M65. Collaboration between my Meade and my Dwarf to give a nice overview of the triplet and enhanced zoom on the individual galaxies
