continued... plus a few other shots:

* The gear.
* A good mate of mine imaging through a telescope for the first time.
* Venus-and-sunspot trails.
* The previous shots assembled into a collage for my Facebook cover photo.

We had a few minutes of fantastic seeing around midday - the view through my 10" Dob's full aperture film was rock steady at 110x and we could see individual granules very clearly.

The view through the Coronado PST was spectacular - H-alpha observing was new to everyone there, so we were thoroughly entertained
