Due to the covid 19 virus and the world on lock down,, Sgl in conjuction with first light optics have been doing broadcasts. Two weeks ago it was my old gaffer,, Steve Richards,, scope doctor on the sky at night magazine and author of,, making every photon count,, regarded as the astrophotographers Bible,, and,, dark art or magic bullet,, available from first light optics. Great broadcast and relevant parts that easily blend in with video astronomy as well.. Will find link and post it up. This Sunday past was even better and a good learning curve. This was posted up in Sgl and worth looking at the links Thanks to everyone that attended - really great talk from Nik and some interesting questions that will lead to future workshops/talks! For those that need the links: Affinity Photo - Currently on sale for £23.99, with a huge 90 day trial - affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/Nik's Webpage - www.ccdland.net/Nik's Flikr stream - www.flickr.com/photos/36672102@N07/Nik's book Shooting Stars II - shop.astronomynow.com/product/shooting-stars-2/(Note, the page says 2nd edition, but Nik assured us it was a version 2, a complete update)

Nah davy, still banned It's not a link problem, It's because I was banned after my explosive comment to them, remember back then? When they removed all our links to here and any mention of this forum . . remember, I wasn't happy with them

You mentioned there was a clash a number of years ago,Ken. It was even before my time. It's a long time to keep you banned....and hold a grudge. I am so glad this is a friendly forum. cheers Paul

I got threatened with being banned when I mentioned a contact glue/sealant sold by Bostick called "Sticks like sh*t" - www.screwfix.com/p/evo-stik-sticks-like-sh-t-adhesive-290ml/22070 They wouldn't except that that was the name of the product and that I believed they were limiting my freedom of speech when the likes of B&Q,Homebase (all UK DIY stores) sold it ,legally,with that name on the can/web site. Some people are a bit funny like that :-)
