  1. If you click on the 'three dots' top-right of your post you should get a dropdown with the options to Report , Share or Edit . The Edit box lets you address the mistake ... 😉
  2. Nice job. But I have to ask the question ... who on earth suggested to you that a 250DPS would be OK on an EQ3-2 .... ??? OK ... cancel the above , I see that you made a glaring error in the opening sentence of your post.
  3. I would be inclined to ditch the old lens/adapter combination and head to "MPB" , "Park Cameras" or "Wex Photographic" and get yourself a pre-loved modern Canon fit lens instead , loads of bargains to be had there.
  4. That'd be an "Americanism" pure and simple , I'm sure they mispronounce our language just for the hell of it ... 😄
  5. You just need to download "JHelioviewer" and you can access all of NASA's historical SDO data and make your own videos from it ... 😉
  6. A little more info would be handy , i.e. camera make and model. Presuming you're talking about previewing images you've just shot on the camera ... ? When you zoom in to 10x you have to scroll around with the navigation button to find small details. The info will be in the instruction book.
  7. Well as it's somebody's name I think that's rather petty and schoolyard-like , how would you like folk to start referring to something related to you as Jabba or Neddie rather than your real name ... 😄
  8. Thick grey blanket to shoot through today so just glad to have caught something ...
  9. I wasted ten minutes this morning trying to figure why the view was all fuzzy and washed out with a bright clear sky ... ? Nice coat of condensation on both the Barlow and the objective (both hidden by filters) will do it after a frosty night ... hairdryer to the rescue ...
  10. Welcome back to it mate , much the same feeling here after a six month hiatus ... 😉
  11. Quick grab in the fleeting blue patches.
  12. https://nso.edu/blog/nso-team-works-on-historical-sunspot-digitization/
  13. Not sure historically , I'll have to have a Google. The biggest I've had the pleasure of witnessing was back in October of 2014 ... 😲
  14. Great catch sir ... 😀 Just needs a L-R flip ... 😉
  15. Long wait for the fog to lift meant no time for any close-ups today ( Six Nations beckons ... )
  16. The three X Class flares it's chucked out so far ... ! "Courtesy of NASA/SDO and the AIA, EVE, and HMI science teams." latest_1024_0304.mp4
  17. And extremely active too , it's chucked off an X 1.7 , X 1.9 and an X 6.3 so far .... !!!
  18. Had an unscheduled patch of blue first thing so jumped on it to get a shot of the 'big'un' ... 😊
  19. It's not something simple such as the focus lock screw being tightened which you've forgotten to loosen ?
  20. That's where I'm aiming for too ... 😉
  21. Back again ... been a while ... Had to remove a few cobwebs from the rig and struggle through the mist but happy to have got back in the saddle after a break of seven months ... 😊 SW Evostar 150 + Canon 6D + Baader ND3.8 + Oiii.
