Mike was a huge part in the making of the event - he is a very very gooood astronomer. He can not only put toghther tv's but lift entire mounts and move the earth - i am sure he was doing that when the sun came up and the shed was really going to be a problem. i even heard his singing the lumberjack song when the sun was nearing the tree..........

Well, what an adventure, but you guys certainly returned with a lot (159GB) of booty! A great transit series as well as humorous location shots. So pleased that you managed to view and record this event.
Cheers

Thanks Gary - i really hope it will pay off - but i must be realistic. My blocking filter was flawed and will be replaced under warranty, it produced some views but it should have been crisper and without the crud. I made the most of it
I am certainly not in the class of Mike, Peter, Paul et al as a quality imager - I see myself as the Aldi or GO LO version
something cheap and nasty but does the trick
