Panorama images from El Teide Observatory

[michael.h.f.wilkinson]

Here are a few panorama images stitched with MS-ICE, taken with my Canon EOS 80D and either the Canon EF-S 10-18mm F/4.5-5.6, or the EF-S 17-55mm F/2.8.

Loads of domes everywhere

another dome, another scope (82cm)

Ultra-wide panorama showing El Teide and a few domes.

Clicking on images for full resolution views highly recommended

Marvellous images. You can't beat the Canary Islands. On the exoplanet dome pic, the man on the right looks like he's about to serve lunch

Amazing however I read it as paranormal! 🙄

 I tried to visit the solar observatory in September of last year, unfortunately the trip got cancelled at the last minute, supposedly due to bad weather.

The middle picture (Blue 'scope) has a really counter-intuitive (But looks highly effective) way of mounting a fork for low a latitude location. And we worry about the cable coming off our 'scopes!

I just love the size of the instrument packages.
