Hi,

Some more experiments on the Sun and the Moon at 3.5 %

Video with 300mm focal length. Tomorrow I will try at 500mm.

and yes it is amazing how fast the Sky moves. At300 mm focal length and 10 seconds exposure time there is already a noticeable Star and Moon trail :shock: approximately 29" arc seconds if my calculation is correct ...

I see what you mean about the distant clouds, that is a real pain! But it does add mood ;) I bet you would get the green flash if you could get the Sun going down over the water :hamster: Superb views!! and the wafer thin Moon is a beauty!
