    Photographing sunsets is cold work...

  8. Superdavo

    Hoping for a clear night to test out my new off-axis guider...

    Editing Moon photos while playing computer games. Isn't batch processing the best!

  10. Superdavo

    Hoping for a good clear night to finally do some Lunar imaging... Here's hoping my motor drive works this time!

  11. Superdavo

    Just spotted the blinking planetary nebula for the first time. I could swear it got its name from being so blinking hard to find!

      There are some other PNs that do that blinking thing and I was wondering if it because we are averting our gaze? I'm trying to remember what were the other PNs but it's late and I just cannot recall their names :-(

    3. Superdavo

      Superdavo

      Yeah, it's because they are nearly invisible when stared at, yet bright with averted vision

    Is my camera playing tricks on me?! Did I just image a green band in the Northern sky, or was out just a camera artefact? Should have definitive answers when I check the RAW data tomorrow...

      North sky looked a bit green to me from Essex, but think my eyes see what I want to see - I probably just saw clouds with the moon rising glowing!

    2. Superdavo

      Superdavo

      Probably a similar situation for me. Will have you make sure tomorrow.

      Saw a reference to the northern lights on a weather report yesterday. The photo they showed looked green.

  13. Superdavo

    Feeling nervous about getting my GCSE results today... Good luck to everyone else who are getting their results today!

      Hopefully your years of observations will have added something extra to your answers that will set you above the crowd. Good luck for your results!

    Looking forward to catching Jupiter for the first time since May this month!

  19. Superdavo

    My first chance for astronomy in a month, and split the double-double for the first time in my new scope!

      What's your new telescope?

  20. Superdavo

    If you want to work out the direction of the prevailing wind, it's usually coming from where there are more clouds

  21. Superdavo

    It's so annoying having parents who don't understand, and have no interest in space!

    1. Superdavo

      Superdavo

      I mean don't understand the hobby, not the universe itself
