Tonights View of the Sky – October 11
October 12, 2012 | View Scope | One CommentJust taking one of the pictures I took last night and comparing it against the star chart. It’s amazing what details you can pick up on the photo that you would miss with your eye. Here are a few.
Very good Stargazing Weather for Sligo
October 12, 2012 | View ScopeThere will be good viewing in Sligo on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th of October, Obviously the viewing on Saturday is the Sligo Rovers match against St. Pats.
Come on Rovers the long wait is nearly over.
First attempt of astrophotography
October 11, 2012 | View Scope | One CommentThis is my first attempt at astrophotography, no telescope just a canon 400d dslr, an argos catalogue on a car as a mount (just like the pros) a little bit of photoshop and a lot of guesswork.
But I am quite pleased at how they turned out. I have a few more shots that I haven’t got a chance to look at yet but will hopefully get to them over the weekend.
