Post: RE: Stansted Road / Brockley Rise junction lights.

Thread: International Space Station
Post: RE: International Space Station
| My C8 is great for observing the moon and planets, even under London's light pollution. Under a really dark sky it's a superb all-rounder and quite a manageable size. |

Thread: International Space Station
Post: RE: International Space Station
| Thanks - it was just an ordinary Canon DSLR attached to the back end of my telescope. I tracked the ISS through the finder-scope, pushing the scope by hand to keep the ISS as close to the cross-hairs... |

Post: RE: International Space Station
| I've wasted great swathes of time watching and photographing the ISS from Forest Hill. Here's a short video I made of it when it came over on 14 April.
