First Outreach

Post by papamidnight »

Weekend outreach went pretty well. Lot's of interested people who really loved the glasses- almost as much as looking through my scope. Talked in some depth to around 30-40 on both days.
The green box was a light shade I made for the laptop from foam but in this photo I had the live view on my Sony DSLR as a display. More photos as I get caught up :)
Thanks again Stephen!

Way to go! Looks like you did a stage 1 mod? I agree with astrodanco. I gotta try that! :)

Thanks everyone. :cheer: Yes a stage 1 mod on a synta 90mm. If I ever find a BF15 at a reasonable price I'll try the stage 2 since the image I am getting is kinda poor-without much detail.
