Sometimes chance is more than effort. 29.04.

Post by pupak »

You set up the telescope, you find the sun based on the viewfinder, you start the FireCap and suddenly you see this (fig. 1). You didn't even touch the focus. Then you realize you forgot to mount the reducer, take one more shot, and that's it. Then you won't even focus through the milk.
So this was exactly my session today. ;)

I do not look at the sky with the eyes of an astronomer, but of a person looking for the beauty of nature.
