2:29 that moment was Soo Jaw Dropping! Amazing Captures!

[@RefreshingViews]

It was quite amazing, I'd love to see another one. Was it visible from your part of the world?

@@RefreshingViews Nope, the Occultation happen to finish before the moon rose above the horizon

Love to see someone so excited about our amazing hobby. Your video of Mars disapearing behind the Moon was amazing and inspirational, thank you and weldone. Definitely worth the 0400 early morning alarm.

[@RefreshingViews]

Thank you - as you say well worth it despite the early alarm and full day at work!

Gracias. Qué buen ejemplo de dedicación. Conocer. Saber buscar. Aplicar. Acá diríamos buena Matesis de astronomía 👍

[@RefreshingViews]

Gracias por tus palabras amables. Espero que tengas un buen día.

Unfortunately I wimped out but to be fair it would have been behind the trees to the back of the observatory any way, great capture though Mark.

[@RefreshingViews]

Thanks, DDO. Yeah it was pretty low so I had to relocate - well worth the effort. Do you have a mobile set up?

[@dumpydalekobservatory]

I do but it can only handle the little 127 MAK, I am slowly putting together a better mobile set up that can handle something a bit bigger, but its going to take time.
