A cold and rainy walk to #RivingtonPike

A great view from Rivington Pike - very windy at the top though

Sadly too cloudy for me here 😥

Magical night! We were able to enjoy the total lunar eclipse, through the penumbra, partial phase, and totality, until it became cloudy during the second partial phase.
#astrophotography #astrocostarica 🔭
Jupiter with 3 of the 4 Gallilean moons, Ganymede is currently behind its mother!
The crescent form of Venus after sunset.
Mars (the red planet) captured here using a defocused approach to draw out its colour. The blurs above making a neat triangle are Castor and Pollux, the twin stars in Gemini
Saturn, captured using my planetary camera. Low in the sky and quite affected by the atmosphere. In another week it'll be too light or low to capture it before the rings are side on (that happens next month). It'll be many months till it reappears as a morning planet.
Planet Parade! All four bright ones captured today (02.00 to 19.00) using different methods (see ALT notes). Jupiter (& Europa, Io & Callisto), Venus in its crescent form), Mars (with Castor & Pollux) defocused to reveal its redness & Saturn (with rings almost side on). #astronomy #astrophotography

Please share your astrophotos with me for a repost! 🔭
Cloud again here today - the Moon is on the other side of Jupiter tonight, roughly halfway to passing Mars (very bright and orange) which should happen tomorrow 🔭

🔭 tonight the Moon passes Jupiter and the Hyades
(Sorry for potato pic, only got my phone tonight)
Its #NationalAstronomyWeek!
Keep tracking the Moon every night as it slowly passes all the planets
Sadly I have clouds here tonight!

A nice walk around #Lancaster on a sunny afternoon earlier today

Have you still been keeping up with #sunhour and do you know if Claire or David have an account?
I'm hoping to get back in to my astrophotography again soon, I've recently moved house and all my kits been out of action for a while
I am a lecturer of A-level Electronics and Physics, and an amateur astronomer, running astronomy enrichment for my students.
I share all of my own astrophotography, astronomy tips, and other photography to my socials.

Recently, my A-level Physics and #Astronomy enrichment students visited @uclan.ac.uk Alston Observatory.
But did you know they run open observation and lecture sessions every month?
You *might* even see the #MilkyWay - just a few miles from #Preston

Please help me find my people as I rebuild a community of astronomers and electronics engineers.
