    March 26th 2012. Venus (top), Jupiter and Crescent moon framed against the Low Spinney wind farm at Gilmorton, Leics. A magical rare moment in time with a super conjunction event, captured within 1 hr post sunset. Olympus E5, 12-60mm SWD. F4, 0.8s, ISO 250.
    March 24/25th 2012. Venus, Jupiter, Crescent moon, stars, Celestial North Pole, Celestial Equator, ISS & Iridium Flare all in one shot. Can you spot them all :-) Not a bad nights work, which took 10 hrs worth of exposures to produce. Olympus E5 with 7-14mm wide angle on tripod capturing continuous 15s exposures (approx 2400 in total), F4, ISO 500. Stacked in StarStax software. Colours courteous of cloud rolling in and light pollution :-(
    05 March 2012. Waxing Lenten moon. Nice clear skies and a nice sharp capture. The best I can get from a camera without a scope. Captured with Olympus E5, 90-250mm with x2TC. F5.6, 1/400, ISO 200
