Saturn and M42

I set up the telescopes this evening before I realized that there was a full moon, but still managed to get a little stargazing in. There were some high, thin clouds that really smudged out M42, but it was still visible, but barely, with the 8″. I then turned over to Saturn, which looked really good in the 8″, but to really appreciate it I went to the higher magnifications that the ETX-90 could provide. All-in-all not too bad for the back yard and a full moon.
