The object, when I went out the other day with the telescope I was testing, was to look at and photograph the first quarter moon. It was still daylight when I started observing and photographing. What I saw was the moon while the sky was still bright blue. So you are not seeing the bright moon against a black sky, but instead a more ghostly view. I have posted a larger than normal image, so please click on this to see a larger view, and to see the craters in more detail. It is such a magnificent object, I never tire of looking at it. I wish I could show EVERYONE the moon through one of my telescopes.
