Details:
It was a nice view last night of the occultation compared to the other recent daytime Aldebaran occultations. Orange Aldebaran contrasting nicely at night. These images were captured with a Questar Q3.5 telescope and a Nikon D810. each image is a stack of 4 0.7 stop varying images to bring up the star. The first image shows just the exit view and the second image the contrast of entry and exit with the star's image a little more subdued in the glow of the lit portion of the Moon.
