I send texts in full English, including correct grammar. Does that make me an old codger?

can't you adapt a car battery?
Nope, it's a 6volt mount. I have a small recharge battery from a child's toy, but it is old now and doesn't hold its charge long.

Well, I learnt something last night.
It's bloody hard to photograph Saturn!!!

I spent a couple of hours, took loads of photos and deleted them all.
Still, lessons learnt for next time

The Cloudspotter's Guide (forgotten the author) is an excellent, and entertaining, place to begin.
I think it is Gavin Prettor Pinney.

It is a good book that. I have a copy of it somewhere.


In the UK, fog is mostly Autumn, Lightning mostly summer,
sunsets at dusk and rain all year

It might be that the objective lens needs to be one of a series? For eg a magnifying glass on its own, as an individual lens, perhaps wouldn't qualify.
That's where I was coming from.
I had a rummage round on the internet and couldn't find reference to a subjective lens ( I definitely remember hearing the phrase in school ), but the rear "glass" in a camera type lens was referred to as the "projection" lens, presumably as this is the lens which projects the focused image onto the film/sensor.

However if we talk about models we talk about subjects so can't we call the objective a subjective then?
So...
The objective of the shot is the subject. The light passing from the subject, passes through the objective onto the sensor.

My brain hurts!!
