The Almost full Moon on June 14th 2011, in Ophiuchus, at about 9:45 p.m. MST.  It was a clear night with very good seeing, so I had no plans of wasting it, and I'm lucky I didn't considering the clouds moving in over the few nights afterward.

I used a Meade DS series Saturn 114mm newtonian reflector telescope, on a Meade alt-azimuth mount, and a Olympus C-750 UZ digital camera,

 Exposure time: 1/1000 of a second, at f/2.8, ISO 50.
