LOL ! Well, of course, Max is (like many dogs) "The World's Best Audience".

I could tell a miserable flop of a joke and yet he would look at me and happily wag his tale, as if to say "Mike ... you must be so funny ! And it makes me so happy."

And if I add the words, "walk" or "treat" to the punch line, I will immediately get a rapturous standing ovation of eager, overwhelming joy !

LOL, Chris !

Ron, that's a terrific image of the eclipse ! Thanks for providing the details of the equipment used, too. I have a good friend who is getting into astronomical photography and he will be very interested in this.

Thanks for the compliments.

I had jury rigged a non-compatible focal reducer to get the telescope's focal length below f/10 otherwise it wouldn't allow me to frame the entire solar disk. Unfortunately that resulted in a curved focal plane so I was unable to have everything in focus.

A made-for-my-telescope focal reducer is due to arrive tomorrow. With a checkout and practice I hope to get some good photos of the Transit of Venus across the Sun's face on June 5th. If I screw that up I only have to wait 100+ years for the next occurrence. :-O

P.S. You FDP photo guys really do some great photos and are an inspiration. Ain't FDP grand?

A friend of my niece's loves to scuba dive. I thought I'd share a link to some of her photography.

Thanks, I've corrected the link

My earlier partial solar eclipse photo failed to get the entire sun in focus. Here's an update photo with a proper focal reducer. Not too many sunspots there.

Hopefully, I can get good shots of the upcoming Transit of Venus.
