SGL2017 Picture thread

[Helen]

I thought it might be fun to post up pictures in one thread....  

I only took a few

It was good to see Ant at a Star Party (when he wasn't hiding behind a quiz sheet!!)

The weather was so good on Saturday Michael could sunbathe outside his beach hut!

My only astro shot of the weekend... the Moon at 4:25am on Saturday morning

Nice to see some familliar and friendly faces

I'm putting mine on Helen (you're in some of them!) So good to see the younger ones having so much fun learning about Meteorites & rockets(& fossils) with your practical experiments. Tommy enjoyed those as you can see in the pictures !

[Helen]

Thanks  I think it is great that we adults had a good excuse reason for playing about with experiments!!!  Great to see you all - and it is great watching Tommy grow up (he's a lovely chap!)

Thanks Helen. We've used the Our Universe app for the phone bringing the planets to life in 3D & had fun with Down to Earth experimenting with impact craters ! Makes it all seem so real when you use google maps. (Why DO boys always choose to destroy their school ?) Very interesting day wish we could have stayed longer.

Great photos quite funny to see my little boy in a few of them  

[lulu57]

Super photos (apart from the one of me gurning and saying "Don't point that thing at me!").

I had the most wonderful, relaxing time - I always look forward to it so much and it never disappoints.

Thanks very much to all the organisers!

Thank you to all the organisers, this year's Star Party has been my favourite so far!

Clear skies to you all.
