Amazing work!!
Well worth the download.

Andy is based near Almeria, I have had 3 superb holidays there (3 weeks in total). After each holiday you need another holiday to recover (sleep) as I was solar observing all day and deep sky imaging all night + lots of birdwatching, walking, eating and swimming in the pool. Pure pleasure! Alexandr...

Good talks on today's meeting.

BTW, where in Spain is your B&B Andy?
Worth noting for future holiday options.

Saw your video this morning Pedro.
Looks like a very nice piece of gear.
Did you print that yourself or get it done commercially?

Watching now.

That's cool!
Michael.

Very nice Martin!
Love the setup.
Michael.

Very nice Alexandra!
Sun was fab this morning.
Michael.

Ah darn. Forget it till it was too late!
I'll catch up on YouTube.

Wishing you all zero clouds for 2023! ;-)

Myself and my wife plan to head to Dallas and drive from there. We're reluctant to head to Mexico if I'm honest. Past experience has taught us to keep an eye on the weather, stay in an AirBnB outside the path of totality near a good highway network, and hire a car. This will be out 6th total solar e...

Hi Michael, Thats a very interesting website, I had not come across that before!! Reading the annular eclipse report - that is very long, I will go into that later. I am not sure if it would be worthwhile to go to a annular eclipse as you have to view it always with eclipse filters and can never ta...

Myself and my wife are thinking of flying to the US for this annual eclipse. Thinking of basing ourselves around Albuquerque for a few days. See more info here: https://eclipsophile.com/ase2023/ and cloud statistics here: https://eclipsophile.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Fig-3.png Anyone else plan...

Out of curiosity, how is the glasspath attached to the threaded part in the second photo?

Great to chat with everyone!

I'll see your baking tray and raise you my colander... ;-)

Thanks for the meetup.
Always fun to chat.

Fake one is quite obvious! ;-)

The demand for these has been astronomical! There was virtually no announcement about their release, and yet, through social media, people went nuts for them! This video sums up the craziness that hit this watch launch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDLHVBCXHRw&ab_channel=Time%2BTideWatches So...

Just wondering if we have any Omega or Swatch fans here? Earlier this year, Omega and Swatch joined forces to release the Moonswatch - a colourful bioceramic play on Omega's flagship product the Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch. It has generated a lot of publicity in the watch world. https://www.s...

Dave, Great to finally have you here on the dark (bright!) side! I know you've looked through my Solarmax90 a few times so I'm glad you finally made the plunge. Brave man to do that mod, but it's clearly been a great success for you! This post will be really useful to anyone else with similar issues...

Great presentation Pedro!
Really enjoyed it.

Ah, missed this!
Just back from hols.
Hope it was recorded.

That's class!

Fab images Nic!
Well done!
Let us know how you get on visually next time.

Thanks Bob.
I have one of the older SM90s.
Didn't realise the 100 f9s were compatible as well.
Thanks,
Michael.
