These days, the issue of air pollution due to the phenomenon of inversion has become a topic of discussion for big and industrial cities, and it caused a lot of trouble for us and caused the cancellation of several of our observation and photography programs.
Now it's time to plan for observing the attractive and difficult crescent of Jumadi al-Awwal 1445, trying to decide where to observe a special and attractive but difficult crescent is very energy-consuming and stressful, and the decision for this observation was exactly the same. , with the cooperation of Ali Mr. Azizim and by examining numerous satellite maps and different meteorological scales, we examined various observation sites and finally on Khoros Golu pass in a mountainous area (on the way from Shahreza to the city of Samiram the functions of Isfahan province) were concentrated and we reached a consensus.
The beautiful neck of Khoros Golu has always reminded me of good memories and numerous successes in observing difficult and critical crescents.
At 14:00, with the agreement of Ali and Mohammad Reza, we left for Khoros Golu Pass, after installing the tools and equipment, in our first attempt to search for the moon, the beautiful crescent of the moon was placed in the field of view of the telescope 9 minutes before sunset, the contrast of the crescent of the moon It was such that surely if we had done this observation hours before, it would have been successful.
The horizon of the observatory was extremely good and ideal, and there was only a little thin dust, and the crescent moon could easily be seen through the telescope. Little by little, our efforts were focused on using binoculars. Fortunately, observation was easily done with 20x90 binoculars, now it was the turn of weaker cameras. Unfortunately, it did not bring an acceptable result, however, the crescent moon was in the field of view of our observation instruments until the last moment of its disappearance behind the mountain.
In conclusion, I am grateful for the efforts of my loved ones, Ali and Mohammad Reza, who honestly and wholeheartedly accompanied us during the past days and finally in this observation.
A very heartwarming and beautiful observation with pure images that kept it in our hearts forever. And thank God a thousand times...
