NOTES:

After the guests all left, I hooked the XSi up to the scope and took a few moon shots.  This was the first one of the night.  At 99.8% illuminated, there are no shadows to highlight surface details. Contrast lightly enhanced, highlights lightly boosted some sharpening, then converted from RAW (CR2) to JPEG in Canon DPP.  Further compressed & cropped using MS Office.
