Well I am sick in bed with a terrible cold - my head felt like it was going to explode from sinus pressure earlier - yuk!
But I am using the time well to plan my November Solar Eclipse - not a total - but from Brisbane - a partial.
I am surprised how quickly it will be over (especially after the 6 + hour Venus transit).

My main challenge will be finding a site with a great eastern view - begins at 5.56am - I will have to do some site inspections a few days prior to ensure I do not miss it - we are lucky (unlucky) here in Brisbane at this time of year, the Sun is up well before acceptances!
I plan to do Ha full disc shots with the LS60 and DMK51 and put together a poster of the event.
And we do not have to wait too long to the next one!

Anyone else having a look?
