The Sun First time using the solar filter on a 300mm zoom.... not sure if lower right that is a barely visible spot, wishful thinking or a smudge on the filter!! #sunshine https://t.co/4Fm6KQQLfK

Monotype Composition Caster arrived! Falling down the pre-digital printing process rabbit-hole has been fascinating - for decades @Linotype_com + @Monotype empowered so much of the fundamental communications. Seeds planted by: @realdougwilson @elliotjaystocks - kudos & thanks https://t.co/YXeZEsLXjW

@hellogeri @VirtualAstro Lovely shot. As school is about to finish and the forecast is promising - hoping to have her stay up super late tonight, to go out with her tonight to see it.

A glorious evening for stargazing and the perfect start to the weekend. #CometNeowise attempts through 8" telescope and then 300mm zoom (I like the context given by the house silhouette). Then the #MilkyWay with wide angle + star tracker from the back garden @VirtualAstro https://t.co/uwzbL9X0MC

@Pebbles_Ang Wonderful :) We also have kites nesting nearby.... stunning to watch, but their screeching at 5am is somewhat annoying!

@Pebbles_Ang Luckily my 10 yo daughter also loves the stargazing - think my wife and 13yo son mostly also think it odd, but are maybe coming around ... but son enjoyed driving around listening to music in the middle of no where at midnight :) Ditto on the wildlife photography https://t.co/TAoTgB2oBz

New @Lowepro rucksack was perfect for viewing the comet last night - @canon DSLR with 300mm easily fits intact with remote trigger in main compartment, top section perfect for @iOptronCorp star tracker, and @manfrotto_uk tripod on the side https://t.co/KPzhCbBVHR

@Pebbles_Ang We have no clear view north and so haven’t been able to spot it - so last night drive around for a while until we found a quiet, dark, country lane with good visibility to the horizon NW. Great fun - I think we’ll try again tonight :)

@petsco We were wondering about places to put in our SUP/canoe where there is plenty of distancing space - were you able to get on to the river ok at Beale Park, Or somewhere nearby?

@petsco we don’t have a clear view north, so my son and I drove around looking for a good observation spot - in the end we found an unlit country road near North Moreton with good view of the horizon N/NW - that shot was at about midnight. His keen eyes def helped spot it initially!

I found it pretty hard to see, but my 13 y/o son was great at spotting it while we drove around to find a north facing outlook.

So we parked in the farthest end of the car park to have lunch, and even then 4 separate groups of people walked right up within feet of where we were eating, despite loads of space 5+ metres along. Bizarre afternoon, and wonder if this is typical around the country.

Well, this was as close as we got to the glorious lavender fields at @cotslavender - long queues, with no meaningful distance between people, almost no one wearing masks. https://t.co/HPGw7HHrQn

@hellogeri @VirtualAstro What time of day did you see neowise? I happened to be awake at about 3.45am and couldn’t see it, though I only have a clear view to the south.

@hellogeri @VirtualAstro That’s awesome it was such a perfect clear bight last night. I didn’t manage to see neowise though. As you know I saw Saturn for the first time 3 weeks ago - such an emotional experience for us too.
