Keep hitting that bong, Willie; your credibility grows by
leaps and bounds every day!

BTW - Don't you have some vomit to choke on?

For anyone who is interested, here is one of the pictures I took of the
eclipse:

It was taken on a Nikon D70 with a TMB 175 apo refractor.


Wow! That's a keeper.

Thanks.

No kidding, nice job Mark!

Getting old sucks Steve. I'm gonna fight it every step of the way. I
suggest you do the same.

Thanks.

Here's a shot of M57 I did a couple months back:

http://users.adelphia.net/~msholden/m57.jpg

The main problem I have with shots like this is light pollution. If I go long enough to make the central star easy to see, the background starts to wash out.

But taking these photos while listening to my "portable" 7030+ is fun.

Also, for those interested in tuning in Jupiter on their shortwave radios, here's a link with information. I suspect most of us have better radios than the kit they offer:
