Hi Paul, wow thankyou - but webcams these days blow my mind - Looking at Bird's recent Jupiter and Saturn - I was just shaking my head in disbelief Afocal still is up there in full disc moon/solar pics stuff i reckon imo
Wish i was into afocal in 2001 on Mars - that was hot as well - the polar cap was so 3-d before the storms it was unbelievable - we could see the cliffs in 3-D relief quite clearly
Cheers
Kearn

You've got me tempted to try a few film afocals this year when mars get to opposition. Still too early in the morning for me at the moment

Sorry getting off topic here. I'll pipe down.

BUT We were Disturbed and Outraged to see those damn graffiti artists had got there before us!!!!???
