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

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.

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

Pretty impressive spectacle i must say.
