Some photos from a camping trip on Antelope Island this past weekend.
It is amazing what you can see with a zoom lens as well as with a telescope.

Photo of the west side of Antelope Island showing the receding water level of the Great Salt Lake which continues to get lower and lower leaving behind a salty beach. |
 |
| Unfortunately I didn't make it up to the summit in time to see the sun go down. This is the best view I was able to get. |
 |
| Another photo of the moon. First time I have been able to capture the blue atmosphere of the moon. |
 |
| Seven Ring spiral rock where we camped. |
 |
| One of hundreds of roaming Bison. No need to drive up to Yellowstone to get up close and personal. |

The moon has essentially no atmosphere--certainly not enough to be able to see with a telescope. The blue color is chromatic aberrations in the optical system of your telescope.
