Imaging the moon

[Mike]

Off topic I know, but I have just noticed yoru signature message John - very apt !!   

[Ian]

It implies they're mutually exclusive...

[Mike]

True.

They are if you don't want 'crappy images'... The problem with having a beer before hand is that all thoughts of spending 1 1/2 hrs dragging my kit half way down the garden, polar aligning, trying to get guiding working etc. etc. seem to disappear. Nowt wrong with having a beer or two once it's all up & running & taking subs though...

[Ian]

I think you may had identified the root cause of my low imaging output...

Let me grab a beer and think about it.

[Mike]

I must admit there have been clear nights after a few beers I have gone outside, looked up and said to myself "Soddit, I can't be arsed".

Hi John,

In reply to your message I have not attempted any imaging of late, what with the weather and the fact that I have been a bit pre-occupied with other things.

I must get back to imaging soon though before I forget what I have learnt so far.

I am sure my K3 must be out of date so must get around to renewing that too.

I probably need an imaging session to give me a shove.  When is the next one?

[Mike]

Been on holiday Carole?

Details of the next imaging session are in the Meeting and Events section of the forum.

[Carole]

Yes twice (it's a bumper holiday year this year) and 2 more holidays to go.

Also been trying to set up some work I can do from home for when I retire, plus other family things.

Was in bed with a cold last night feeling pretty rotten, thus missed the meeting, I just didn't feel up to coming.
