But, you are right - a 3X Barlow for Mike's "equipment" may be required.

Well, I nearly fooled the clouds last night with my diversionary 'rant' but they saw me sneak out and managed to fling across a thin cloud screen as soon as I got the camera cooled down. I wondered why there were no stars on the first few frames then I looked up.

Alex, my artistic skills are limited, I'm a 'Tech' man and drawing plans and diagrams works but anything else is just a waste of time. Musically I used to play guitar but my hands don't work for that anymore and the neighbours would complain soon enough.

Might end up having to do some more housework ... or coming back here to follow the fun.

Cheers all

Observing the clouds

I might take up the hobby of observation of cloud decks right now.
