Sun Spot Shot June 4th
One thing about having an observatory is that there is no set up required to look through the telescope...so this morning I was able to head outside, open the roof, attach the camera, fire off 20 shots and be back indoors within about 20 minutes. I managed to grab a couple shots with the Canon T2i in moments of decent seeing and here is one of them...taken with the TEC 140 and Lunt Herschel Prism...click for full size:

Hi Alan
ReplyDeleteNice images. Wish you good luck with the transit. We are clouded out but there is a slight chance to see the transit in Switzerland.
Keep in touch!
