Some nice white light viewing with the 102EDR

Had a lovely session in the peace and tranquility of the garden. Found a nice spot under the shade of the awning where I could sit and view in comfort. Plenty to see with the Hershel wedge and binoviewers. Tried some captures for posterity using my phone. The first one was at around 150x I think and the second was at around 300x. Sorry for all the dust bunnies and hairs!

That's a good way of keeping your head in the shade. I use a scope cover but it can get hot under a cover and it adds to the vibes a little. Unfortunately I don't think I would get political approval for an awning.

Awnings are great. They are also good for health. We got one installed after my wife got melanoma (now treated)

It wasn’t cheap but so pleased I got one. The current trend seems to be for houses to have massive bifold doors (I’m not a not a huge fan personally!) which turns the room into a greenhouse. The awning has really helped reduce the temperature in the house, create some privacy and allows enjoyment of the garden in the shade. It’s been a real boon. Glad your wife was successfully treated Jeremy, not a pleasant thing to go through.
