I have resisted imaging this target up until now as I thought it was rather boring, but faced with a clear night, on the night of a full Supermoon, I didn't have a lot of choice of targets.  It was due to cloud up at around 11.30, so this was as much as I could get.

Excellent Carole, not sure I've ever seen a narrowband Monkey before. Looks really nice.

Thanks Duncan, there are quite a few of them around on other forums.

It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!
