Face to face with this summer's last full moon!

The rocks on the left are seem to create a face looking at the face of the full Moon as if Autumn is looking face to face with Summer. Excellent weather conditions during this imaging session and a magnificent full moon is rising over the Megalithic monument of Horigio - Northern Greece.

Venus and sunspot AR2403. The image is a mosaic of two different shots acquired with almost the same equipment. The AR2403 complex was near the solar limb in the image acquired on August 28, while Venus was two weeks after inferior conjunction.

I would like to submit these images from the full moon rising in Prague, Czech Republic on August 29th. These were all taken at approximately 17:50UTC from the Prague Castle grounds which are approximately 4 kilometres away from the tower in the photograph. The babies featured on the Zizkov TV tower are the work of Czech artist, David Cerny, some of which also seem to be intently watching the moonrise. These planned shots were taken with a Canon 5D2 and an MTO-1000 M42 1000mm lens.
