Rain, wind, Jupiter and moonlight


Hawksmoor

1,927 views

Lowestoft weather has been so changeable, breaks in the cloud so infrequent and the comfort of my fireside chair so all enveloping, that I have hardly ventured out with my scope for what seems an age. Pining for some photons, I set up my DSLR on a tripod and photographed Jupiter dodging the clouds and coming within 6 degrees of the Moon. With a bit of ham fisted Photoshop jiggery pokery, I constructed a composite image of the event. Looks a bit 'Macbeth' but I quite like it!

If the weather stabilises, I would like to take some 'this season' avi- clips of Jupiter and maybe have a crack at a 'guided' image of the Horsehead or Crab nebulae.
