I’m into astroimaging myself. Seems to be some interest on here with the lunar and solar images above.

Cheers Keith. That would be nice but no just a humble 4” refractor.
Last time I was able to see a sky close to that naturally, thanks to UK atmospheres and light pollution, was deep in the Australian Outback. I’m afraid my little camera did not cut it.

Ha!

There seems to be a few people on my local photography page trying to find and photograph kingfishers - I think I beat them to it (they are predominantly blue with an orang-ish front right?)

You can never have enough photos of a Spitfire. Taken by myself, not the best picture ever, but personal to me
