  3. Trifid Nebula

    That is already a belter - so when it's finished - WOW!!! Greg

  4. Another ISS pass and Summer sky

    wingeing Pom replied to wingeing Pom's topic in DSLR and CCD Astrophotography

    I think it has something to do with the Moon being upside down at your place Greg

  5. ISS transit

    wingeing Pom replied to wingeing Pom's topic in DSLR and CCD Astrophotography

    Yep - the sky was too light for a single 6-minute exposure. Greg

  13. We have had unusually hot weather recently and I have had to go out most nights with the hose to prevent the Missus' plants from dying. Noticed Superhydrophobicity at work on the Bulrush leaves, so I went out today to macro the effect. Wasn't expecting my little mate to be there as well - I'm always amazed at the antenna length of these beauties!! Greg

  14. Cocoon nebula region

    wingeing Pom posted a topic in Image Gallery -

    I added some extra data to the north of this one and reprocessed the whole thing. Taken with the Canon 200mm lenses and Trius M26C OSC CCDs - a horizontal 2-frame mosaic. Greg

  15. dead mount cable?

    wingeing Pom replied to poppasmurf's topic in Equipment Discussion

    Just stick a 1kW UPS in, they're only £100 in the UK and it will power mount, computer, monitor, the lot. I have 2 x 1kW UPSs in the MiniWASP observatory. Greg
