Excellent shot Dean! Many interesting elements (the Old Pueblo (my home
town!), Kitt Peak, the subject matter at hand (Moon), etc.) and well
composed. It appears that 13h 52m will be the number on this one.
Thank you,
Jimmy Ray

Good job Jimmy! Wife Melinda and I went chasing it too and caught it from a
few miles up on the Mount Lemmon Highway. We also spotted it with minutes
to spare, 13h52m by my calculations. Pics and description on the blog:

Thank you Tom! Pierre set the bar high. I'll see if I can do better next
time:-)
What may have impacted your site was that there looked to be a fairly heavy
layer of haze or smoke around the southern point of the White Tanks and over
toward the Estrella's. Knowing your location, I could see where that might
have been a factor. There was sufficient haze to the West to make me
question being able to pick out the Moon. As I wasn't using a computer, I
almost missed it because I was sweeping a bit too far south at first but
adjusted and picked it up with 7 minutes to spare.
Thank you,
