Our closest Star

Hi Everyone,

I was playing around with my home made Solar filter (will write up an article soon) and couldn’t wait to get a happy snap so shoved it on my Megrez 90 with Camera in toe and took some shots of our nearest star, these were taken with the telascope sitting in my lap with the Canon EOS 600D live view to help focus and aim, I was pretty happy with the results considering how awkwardly I was sitting.

looks like I am almost ready for the Venus Transit on the 6th June 2012.

Hope you enjoy
