[Now sporadic] Astrophotography from the top of a wheelchair ramp || #MECFS - me since 2001, my wife since 1990 || SARS-CoV-2 (Covid) is airborne, and disabling millions, so using FFP3 😷

I was surprised to find this feather had blown in from the garden last night.
ChatGPT told me all about it. Who knows what it is?

This is from last month. We’ve now had to upgrade to three large, and two smaller trays for the wood pigeons and the starlings to enjoy.

We’ve been seeing a woodpecker at the feeders for a while, but now two juveniles have also started coming!

I wasn’t sure how much was mountains/valleys and how much was artefacts on mine. The whole disk is only about 600 pixels across.

Managed to get a shot of the partial phase with my iPhone.
Some nice colours in the clouds.

I haven’t been able to use my ‘scope for ages, but I suppose a picture of Venus and Mercury out of the bedroom window is better than a slap in the face with a wet haddock.
