    Thanks Mark. I’m going after the annular eclipse. It will peak at 80% here in Colorado Springs USA

    Very informative video (even for us in the southern hemisphere :) ) Thanks for sharing!! I took my best image of Saturn just last week, the configuration of it's rings looks beautiful these days! BTW have you ever thought about using a hyperstar on your C11? Seeing as you like to do EAA for deep sky objects perhaps the faster F ratio and wider FOV will be something you will enjoy

      Thanks Ziggy. So glad you’re enjoying Saturn - it’s beautiful isn’t it? By the way I suggest the recent Observers Notebook podcast interview with Trevor Jones from NSW as he loves his Saturn research.
      Thanks for the tip. Not sure my C11 with support hyperstar - plus I’m loving peering into galaxies at f6. Do you use it?

      @@RefreshingViews if it says Fastar compatible on the front of your secondary then it's hyperstar compatible. But of course with such a large aperture You're getting a lot of light anyway. Thanks for referring Trevor, I think I've seen his images but I don't follow him.

    i have a refractor telescope that came with a 2x and 3x barlow lense along with 4 little round colored (green/red/yellow/blue) lenses that screw onto the end of my lenses. what can i safely use to watch the eclipse. i am in Canada.

      Hi Brian, the cheap options are either solar projection or making a sun filter from Baader solar film (really reflective Mylar film). Don’t use any of the filters in your message to observe the sun - they’re for bringing out subtle details on planets.
