The Wedensday Line-Up from New Zealand

Tony Travaglia's beautiful shot of Wednesdays line-up as seen from Otago, New Zealand. He had good weather, lucky beggar. The shot focuses on the Moon, Regulus and Venus. You need to click to embiggen to get some wonderful detail.

Shot with a Canon 400mm L series. The detail is quite astounding as the picture is 1/4 of the full frame.

Tomorrow, Chris Wyatt's take on the night.

Thanks Ian, I like your pictures, I even tried taking a picture with my phone the other night, but it's a (HTC) O2 Atom and the camera is very poor even if it is 2 Mpixel.
