Subject: Hi-res Clavius


Hi all,

Seeing wasn't too bad at all last night. I decided to wait until the
Moon was a bit higher in the sky to try for a hi-res shot of Clavius.
However, after a perfectly clear night, the clouds decided to creep
in. The hi-res shot was compromised to the left of the picture by
turbulent seeing and cloud cover. I'm fairly happy with the result
though...

Absolutely stunning, Pete. The high-res is one of the best Clavius shots
I've ever seen.
