moon through window glass

[nytecam]

At this time of year, with subzero temps, I observe through double glazing in either the front or rear porch at acceptable room temperatures - give it a try with binoculars or via your camera

This morning I looked at the sun in hydrogen light via my tiny PST telescope and here's the gibbous moon setting at dawn this morning plus a x40 zoomed shot inset that shows lunar craters - used my new Hitachi dual camcorder/ camera in camera mode on tripod - great [and comfortable] fun

Here's a video clip made before breakfast from within our porch through glass of the crescent moon via my cheapo £18 Disgo Fun VGA vid-cam and Meade ETX-70 spotting scope at YouTube - DISGO fun cam - moon through my scope

Running low on food so might have to venture out in the snows and sub-zero temps

Wow. Thats really, really good, nytecam.

All the family's here and they're all of the same opinion....even the one we call Victor Meldrew.. so thats praise indeed!

Thanks - rushed home Sunday evening to catch crescent moon + Jupiter low in the west with my Hatachi dual cam but a little too late for good quality
