Binoculars, Tripod Mounting and High Altitude Viewing

Hello IIS,

This is a very beginner question.

I have a 10x50mm set of binoculars, which I mount on a camera tripod. It's great and its definitely helps viewing, however I have the following problem.

When trying to view objects of high altitude (high up in the sky), the stage gets close to 70 degrees and its really uncomfortable on my neck to virtually get underneath to view the object.

How do others get around this issue?

Thanks, IIS is a great forum.
