Simon picked up this Celestron FirstScope from a charity shop in our local town, brill little table top scope - hoping to use for some outreach ;0)

Celestron dealers in the UK don't seem to stock a Sun Filter for the '127 SLT yet, so I bought one for the Omni 127/NexStar 5SE - it doesn't fit, but I securely glued on an old leather belt around the filter's plastic rim so now it slips on nice and snug and doesn't slip off.
This is my setup.

Achimedes is located at the bottom of the image, it measures 83km wide and 2.1km deep. Another notable feature includes the 'Rille' central right at the edge of the Apenninus mountain range. This winding rille with a crater located roughly central is named 'Rima Hadley' and is the location of the Apollo 15 landing site. On August 7th 1971 David Scott & James Irwin landed at Hadley Rille and spent 3 days on the lunar surface. The landing site is on the inner south east side i.e. Opposite to the rille's central crater.
The rille is approximately 130km in length.

This hawk has decided to make a nest in my neighbor's yard, just within range of my telescope. Photo was taken with a Nikon D50 attached to a Celestron C90 telescope at 1000mm focal length.
I really need to figure out what to do with this rats-nest of cables...
All Celestron equipment for my first setup.
Was balancing the scope last night with all the gear and cables attached, so I could make marks on the bottom dove-tail and the weight-bar for reference when I'm in the field. I've had a problem with imbalance the last few times and as a result my battery has been dying really fast!
Funny side note, notice the top counter-weight; it still has the "To Henry, From Santa" tag on it ;D I like to think it's my lucky charm ha! My father bought me the telescope last christmas, and I've added all the astrophotography gear on it since.

This is also something I have to try in really dark place to get something more out of it..
My buddy's scope on a cloudy evening in Rose Valley. It was clear all day,and then as we set up for the evening for some night viewing the clouds rolled in. We did see a few things that night, but it wasn't what we had hoped for.
