Managed to find a small bit of blue and got to snatch a few frames with the other new lens.

A Sigma 150-600C that I got mainly for wildlife but I hoped would double up as a grab and go Solar/Lunar tool too.

A 2x TC at the back and a 95mm Baader ND5.0 filter up front on the Canon 2000D off the everyday Manfrotto tripod.

I need to mount a dovetail on the lens tripod collar so it'll fit the HEQ5Pro as 1200mm on a triopd's no fun with a moving target ... :lol:

Single jpeg shot 1/500s @ f13 ISO 100. Just cropped square and tweaked in Gimp.
