Who is Gladys Allibone, who has had an image of M57, taken with a handheld Konica camera, on the Gallery Update site?

Fay - I don't think it's M57 - It's the total Solar Eclipse..... John

There is little chance of getting M57 with anything hand held !

Hi Fay

Ditto to what John just posted but he beat me to it.

Hi Mike
I think you are wrong there, because if you drive through Liverpool M57 comes up on the hand held Tom Tom  :lol:

How funny, I did not see the word "Eclipse" under the picture, it must have been because I had a couple of drinks!

I thought, "Is it April the 1st"? why has everyone got all this fancy equipment when Gladys can do it with a hand held camera.

I WAS aware that M57 could not be taken with a hand held camera, but I thought it was a joke!

It did wake everyone up, so many replies!

Solar Eclips to M57, I'd say that was a few drinks not a couple :-)
