I recently acquired a Sigma 1.4 TC to go with my 150-500 so tried it out tonight. So it gives me an effective 700mm a bit small for planets but OK for the Moon I guess :D

Great shot Ken. Very nice detail and I like the warm tone.

Welcome to the "dark" side. :D

Aaah i see, or at least I understand, I don't think the X in my shot is the same set of craters
