Hello everyone,
I've been a bit out of action with a big move to Sydney from my lovely dark sky rural setting.
But I've kept the property and will visit monthly(for imaging!).
I've also been working on a home-made observatory 4 meters diameters, just about finished, so the gear has been dismantled for a while.
I did take the opportunity to have some quick shots while in Sydney of the beautiful eclipse with the small WO 80mm.
Because I was processing things from a little old laptop (usually dedicated to guiding ) i had to shrink jpegs just so the computer could crunch through...
so resolution isnt great but I was glad i did something.
I'll reprocessed sometime, someday, when I get a chance...
I've others' work and its phenomenal!
mine is a bit embarrassing but what the heck, just didnt want people to think I'd fallen off the face of the Earth!:)
