Description

Yesterday (Sunday,21.Nov.04) I was able to take pictures of a strong lunar corona. It was possible to see the colored ring directly. The strong colors a a result of the long-time-exposing (>10 sec.) The corona is a diffraction phenomen caused by very tine waterdrops or ice crystals. Thanks for looking and all your nice comments of the picture "Seven stars" Best Reinhard! Best, Reinhard
