Not Wasdale! This time just yards from home, Christopher persuaded me to get a photo of the Moon setting. It's waxing at present, last night we watched it set a little earlier, soon after the sunset.
Not having used the D800 since May, except for a brief attempt with a comet, I struggled with the settings and couldn't find infinity on the 24-120 f4 lens, it focuses a tad past infinity and that is something of a pain. After eight attempts to home in on a half decent exposure the Moon was about to disappear below the horizon I had to accept what I had.

Very nice unusual shot.
I would sell that lens to the European Space Agency...they are struggling to see beyond our galaxy let alone beyond infinity.
