Full moon tonight. Taken 9:30pm-ish.
Note: Southern hemisphere, so our moon's positioned a tad different. :P

There's no "dark side" of the Moon
All sides of the Moon get sunlight at different times. The “far side” is just the part we can’t see from Earth due to tidal locking—it always keeps the same face toward us.
Got my full moon shot, just before clouds rolled in and started raining too!
Waning half #Moon today
Moon using a relatively wide focal (243mm), and a planetary camera (ZWO ASI178MC)... Definitely, dobsonian is better.
Moon last night at 88% waxing. Originally had 4000 frames of data, I only picked 1000 to process. The rest had some weird shaking.
