      Mounted my regular head to the super clamp, ala Legdog for bownanza family photo. Thanks Steven. I'll mount that to one of the rail tie hootus' on the side of the pickup bed. This is for the camera.

      Have the fluid head on the tripod. For the 80x200 binos.

      It's go time.

        Just took my 2 daughters out and found it. It's to the left of the moon right now and is easier to see with a pair of binos. Cool stuff.

            Man I missed it again! I just ran outside, to many trees, but I didn't see anything!

              Good deal Marion. BTW saw you Saturday just never got to say hello.

              Cody was it actually that light?

              A few I took. I will take a stronger lens tomorrow night. It's f4 but will work.

                Nice pictures Bill. I lightened it up a tad bit but as it got darker the clouds started to cover it up from my point of view. I was using f10

                    Around what time is optimal viewing?

                    Awesome photos!

                      I start seeing it about 8:10. Unfortunately it's not a naked eye viewing but we all have binos here, right?

                            I've tried for the last two nights and never found it. I was using binos too. I'll give it another shot tonight. I always miss these things, I'm determined to see this one.
