nice one Mick, one for the mags there!

Beautiful shot.

I'm gonna have to get away from my backyard in the next day or two, that's the only hope i've got of seeing them nicely in the west.

Hey Tony, 8 sec at f/3.7 iso200. I played around with the iso and timing but those settings gave me the best results

Sorry to hear about the boy Mick. You'll have to get him a nice present to make him feel a bit better.

Got the flu here atm so not feeling like doing anything adventurous with the photos.

Just a 50mm and 135mm shot through the Mintron video camera. Think I overexposed too much in the 135mm shot. Bit late to fix it now. Lots of video artifacts too. This would look so much better with a DSLR.

Hey Pentax, when are you guys bringing out something in the $500 mark? It only has to work on the "B" setting.

Wow Mick, sorry to hear about your boy. How old is he? How did he do it? Obviously fell over somehow..

Great shots Kev, nice spikes!

You've got a lovely sequence going there Kevin. I'd like to try stacking widefield images using Spica as a point over a couple of days to see the movement of Venus and Jupiter.
Stephen is 11 he's home now and feeling much better thanks he has casts on both arms what a sorry sight. He was retrieving a football from a roof at school and tried to jump down but snagged his foot on the gutter and took a superman to the ground luck he didn't break his neck.

Thanks Mick. Sounds like a good idea watching the movements, if the weather can stay clear for long enough!

I didn't try tonight. I just feel too crook.

Must have been a wonderful night of viewing. Wish I was there but I don't think my germs would have been welcome. That and not being able to stand for long.
