It may be obvious to anyone who knows me that I am a little bit busy with Uni work at the moment thus leaving me with little time to work on my website. This is a great shame as recently I have been up to lots of things some of which may have been mildly interesting, probably not though.

Over last weekend I spent my time writing a paper review for my fourth year project, that is going well so I am pleased.

Last night was good fun though, I went observing with Steve and we managed to get some interesting views of the Moon through our new filters. It was very impressive, I even tried to take a photo of it through my phone. This did not come out at all well! Phone + Scope =

Well you can sort of see it is the moon, well what do you expect with a £30 mobile phone camera!

I did actually manage to get an interesting one though. I moved the camera of my phone a bit further away and managed to get the powerful light source of the moon emerging from the telescope eyepiece with the background of the light of Selly Oak / roof.

Oh and you can now tell it is approaching winter, it is nice and cold outside! Here are a few photos I have took recently of the autumn sky.

The wonderful clock tower is dominating in this image:

The sun breaks through these dark clouds:

And finally the moon just above the bridge between physics west and east, what a site that was with the eye - taken at twilight (probably my favourite of all the above!)
