Just a few pics. Not my images although I did commission them from our photographer at work.

It was a really good night, the weather played ball (mostly) and for those of us camped outside we had a steady stream of people coming for a look all night. Received numerous WOW comments when I stuck the 2x Powermate and 13mm TV Ethos on the moon, at 185x magnification it looked fantastic!

It was a very enjoyable night, and the seeing was mostly quite good. The Moon and Jupiter had a few jaws on the floor. I started by showing them the Moon at a low magnification in the Baader zoom, and then cranked up the magnification. I reckon we got a few hooked! :D


 


Being outside, I didn't get to see all the other stuff going off, I missed the talk and I didn't see Ibbo again after six o'clock, but it went down well with those who attended.


I did go the next night and got to see Paul Money and the Moon and Meteorite samples. :)


 


It was an immense effort from Mike and the staff at the school, these events just get better.
