Stargazing

Monday night was a good night for looking at the stars. 



We were lucky enough to see Saturn.  It was nicely positioned so that we could see the 2 separate rings and the gap between the rings and the ball of the planet.  We also saw Jupiter and 3 of its moons, as well as Mars.  Bryony has been trying to take photos through the telescope but it's pretty tricky. 
Here's her best one, of the crescent moon



 Here's an ordinary photo, where you can see the unlit part of the moon as well
