    Well clouds have cleared for now. Gonna try recording a video of Saturn with a DSLR for stacking if it comes into my restricted southern view. And maybe catch some noctilucent clouds after sunset. Not sure what DSLR settings to go for..... hmmmm....

    High haze is my nemesis today for first attempt at video capture with a DSLR and also first light for Canon 100D. But I've got a few vids just to have data to play with at stacking tonight. A few hand-held shots with both the 20D and 100D of the Sun with my DIY 58mm Baader film filter.  Now chilling with a San Miguel as I wait for a thinner part of cloud to pass over

    A mixture of afocal, handheld, and prime focus shots with Canon 20D and Canon 350D DSLRs. Star trail 95x subs at 15secs long ISO1600 with 11x dark frames. Scope is SkyScout 90mm f/7.33, Jupiter shot through 10mm EP/2x barlow combo. Jupiter cropped but otherwise all raw as CBA with processing them lol! IMG_6310.CR2 IMG_6311.CR2 IMG_6312.CR2

    Today was my first time EVER, yes I did pop my solar observing and imaging cherry, and for once (super low self esteem when it comes to photography) I'm abso-frickin-lutley chuffed with myself with a couple of my shots. For years I've wallowed in self pity over my ineptitude and kack-handedness, but today's given me the joy and wonder I'd always felt as a kid when gazing up at the stars. Even making the filter was an achievement I'm proud of not screwing up!! Hope others had as an amazing day as I

    All utterly crap, but feel free to experiment on processing, and please let me know what you did

    That awful gutted feeling you get when you review the data from last night's sesh, to find that somewhere along the line you knocked everything out of focus :(

      Ouch. Know the feeling. Part of the mistakes that go with the territory to get the good stuff, hope your next session is a good 'un.

      Or in a number of my sessions, you realise that you never finished focusing in the first place lol.

  14. toilandtrouble123

    Going to attempt to catch some early Perseids with the 350D, and try some more star trail experimentation with the 20D tonight :)

  15. toilandtrouble123

    Fingers crossed for clear skies tonight, wanna try Jupiter, and have a stab at Saturn in prep for opposition in a couple of weeks time :)

    Attempts at capturing earthshine and tried my hand at stacking multiple shots to create star trail of The Plough, experiments showing ISO 400 to be most effective at f/5.6 using Canon 20D and 28-80mm lens.
