Anyone watching the eclipse?

You can still catch it re-emerging right now if you missed it.

Yes, it was snowing here earlier but it cleared up in time to see the whole thing. I just wish I had known that was Saturn next to it! Had the telescope out and everything - maybe I'll look at Saturn later this week.

I meant to, but fell fast asleep too early!

Clouds cleared here too. Saw it out the kitchen window. Fantastic.

Claypa, we're going to rename you Nanook of the North, you cold hardy thing you. It was way to cold for me to be messing around with a telescope last night. brrrrrrrrr I had to satisfy myself with quick forays from time to time to see it. LOL

I saw it but sadly had left my camera at work....GRRRRRR

I tried taking some photos but, as I suspected, without a tripod they didn't really come out very well. It was too cold to set up the tripod too. LOL

I'm lazy - I've been known to open the sliding door on my van and stand there w/camera propped...have played with sports mode as well as using the self timer to avoid any movement at all...

Keep in mind the earth is moving as well as you. I tried propping. The ones I took without a zoom were fine but the moon was the size of a pinhead.

LOL good point!!! Mine has the image stabelization on it - thank God...helps when using the zoom....then save at highest quality - then crop...sometimes ya win...sometimes ya don't

Mine has image stabilization too. It wasn't blurry, but each moon image had a tail from the movement.
