G'day Dunk; no, it was one of my earlier shots with my 600D [ thank goodness for the swivelling screen]. This is one of my favourites, got published in S&T last year. It was purposely done with a
slight coating of dew on the lens in the hope of giving the image a softer
appearance, which it seems to have done.
cheers raymo

“You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen.”

Just thought I'd throw that one in.
Douglas Adams quote.

That's a ripper Leon, 2415 was the bee's knees, especially when hypered.
The only Halley's I have was taken untracked sat on top of a fence with
an 85mm lens, so it looked very much like Omega Cent. as I said in an earlier post the other day. Now b....r off and start your own thread.

Great image with a great camera
Always enjoy your archive
I acquired my 600D from my wife who never used it much , it was stored in the wardrobe for 5 years until I discovered astronomy back in 2016 and put it to some good use in AP
