IYA Moonwatch Week

The IYA Moonwatch started off well.

27 March 2009
I just caught the one day old crescent of the new-moon just after sunset. Rather amber in colour due to its proximity to the horizon but a near perfect half circle like the bowl of a cup, open end up.

Not really enough time to get the 'scope out on it, but lucky to have caught it anyway.

Filthy weather all day. Cleared up slightly at sunset, but the wrong part of the sky still obscured.
