Solar Observe on Star Wars Day

It's that "May the 4th be with you" day.

Here's a photo capture of today's Sun, burning bright and beautiful with a stunning May time radiance.

The little Vixen telescope is back in the motorhome, where it belongs.

Recently I bought myself one of those camera adapters that fit over the eyepiece.

It cost the princely sum of £2 !

The adapter did a great job of holding our smartphone in place.

Seeing that the phone was now held tight I could spend some time adjusting the manual focus settings, which made all the difference.
