Re: Eclipse
 

I managed these with my elite camera/telescope combo- they're not ideal, since I don't have an adaptor, I was just pointing the camera at the viewfinder :wink:

Re: Eclipse
 

I kept running to the window to get a look at this. Wish i had a tripod cos i was dying to get some shots while i had a nice clear sky.
But i think i'll just nick Sudoxe's and pretend they were ones i took, cos they would have looked just like that from here. :D

I went out and tried to have a quiet contemplative moment. Just me, a :smt033 and the moon. Then the bloody security light came on! Almost blinded me and made me drop said :smt033
So i went back indoors and watched thru thr windows again.

Pretty impressive spectacle i must say.

Re: Eclipse
 

doesnt happen that often every 2 years i think, not like the solar eclipse, the funny thing is i was lying next to my mrs in bed .... ive got a Very decent 10" mirror telescope in my garage . . . . i decided is was more within my intrest to stay in the bed. . . its cold outside when your naked lol \\:D/
it looked good though it would of gone really red in the lower part of the country, kinda goes like mars.
