Re: Solar Eclipse
Thanks my camera is a very old compact Mups as both my DSLRs are broken, so i have had to go back to digiscoping. putting it to the eyepiece of telescope i use for birding.Its very hit and miss because focusing is a nightmare. Its only a 4mp camera most phones would wipe the floor with it and kick its tiny butt into the corner
At least i saw it as the forecast had said no chance, apparently a supermoon tonight as well.

Re: Solar Eclipse
Beautifully clear and amazing here. I thought at first we would miss it as some large black clouds arrived but they soon passed over.Made the cats very unsettled - they paced about like caged Tigers, and it became quite cold for a while. Afterward we had a lovely, warm, sunny day.
I can quite understand why people used to fear eclipses.
