I took some pictures of the transit as well but I didn't have my focal reducer yet so I couldn't get the sun entirely in the frame.

Nice photo you took.
Hello Rich,
Thanks for the compliments on my photos. I checked out your work and you are the talented one. Nice art work. I just attach my camera to the back of my telescope. It's mounted on a equatorial mount so it stays tracking if proper polar alignment is achieved. I take 3 to 4 minute photos and stack them. I use post processing but I'm still very new to the hobby so still learning. We are neighbors I also live in Northridge.
Thanks for the reply and welcome to the site.

Hello,
What would you estimate the distance at which this photo was taken? Nice shot. As you know I'm interested in this Lens.
Hi Mike,
I'm interested in this L lens.
How would you like to arrange for shipment and payment?

That's a beautiful shot. Love the detail.
Where is this? Just the place to recharge and get some great shots at the same time. L A beaches are so crowded. I know boo hoo.
Nice pics of your grandson and the moon. I thought the nice thing about being grandparents is you can spoil them and send them back to their mom and dad. Cute kid.

Very creative simon. No pun. Love the colors and lighting.
Nice pics. The only wild animals I have in my vicinity are possums and racoons.
Thanks Lfingar,
Great idea with the 2x4. Good motto to live by and when it comes to photography I'm not paying any bills with my hobby so any comments that point out my mistakes are welcomed.
Cheers,
Jim
No worries grw100. I took without a tripod spur of the moment. I've since upgraded to dslr photography and try and plan my shots better. Constructive criticism should be welcomed, without it one may never learn.
