I struggled getting the focus right along with all the other settings, you've done great to get any shot with all this light pollution these days!

theres nothing like the country sky on a clear night i can just stare up at it for hours!!! the northern lights are happening at the minute too though ive not seen it happen i think its mainly happening in scottland! oh really it isnt the milky way or something like that is it? i no my friend mentioned it...but i forget why

Yeah the country is great for stargazing I believe the Aurora Borealis has been seen as south as North Yorkshire! I wish it would come further south I think it did last year or the year before.No the Milky Way is our galaxy. It could be Venus or Mercury, but im not sure.

I would love to see the Aurora Borealis it was over the penines last night absolutely gutted i missed it...I went stargazing on the rong night i think it is going to reach down south hopefully they were saying on the news!!!
