BAZ Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I couldn't resist this one. It's a bit poor, as I had to manually focus, and take it through a bedroom window to get Mercury in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Type-R Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Very nice, I was trying to explain what they were to my 2 year old in the car. Don't think he has the concepts of planets etc yet, never mind, I will keep trying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catman161 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Great shot Martyn, I saw it too. But I can't tick mercury off my list until I've seen it through a telescope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Nice one Martyn, I saw that too and wondered if I should get the camera out but was too blurry eyed and warm to go out in the cold until absolutely necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAZ Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 Thanks everyone, it must have looked funny, some old duffer wandering round the garden in a dressing gown and slippers. I still had to go and get it out the bedroom window as Mercury was too low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
