Hi folks,
ik liep gisteravond zo'n 3 km alleen en in het aardedonker over een kronkelpaadje door het bos om deze plaat te kunnen schieten - was ff spannend - want ook nog in een 'restricted access zone', dus geen mobiel aan, maar absoluut de moeite waard.
Voor de outsiders: Dit is het Westerbork Synthese Radio Telescoop (WSRT), van Astron, één van de grootste radiotelescopen in de wereld. In dit Drentse landschap staan maar liefst 14 schotels opgesteld met een diameter van 25 meter elk.
De sterrenhemel - die krijg je zo 'ech nie' te zien in Rotterdam - maakt de sfeer helemaal compleet, wat mij betreft. - Enjoy!
Tips voor de sterren (voor de startert)
Als eerste: maak dat je wegkomt uit stedelijk gebied, en mik op een heldere avond.
1. Statief en timer (duh!)
2. Groothoek < 35mm, want zoveel mogelijk sterren vangen.
3. Schieten op stand M.
4. Diafragma zo wijd mogen open - liefst met een lichtsterke (prime) lens - idealiter op f/2.8. Let wel op je focus (oneindig kan beste optie zijn).
5. Sluitertijd korter dan 30 seconden, als je tenminste niet wilt dat de sterren strepen gaan trekken. Max 20s werkt goed.
6. Om zoveel mogelijk licht in korte tijd binnen te krijgen jaag je de ISO omhoog - afhankelijk van je diafragma en gekozen sluitertijd. Begin bij ISO1600, en wanneer nodig gerust tot ISO3200 (of hoger), zeker als je een FX sensor hebt.
7. Geniet van de sterren!

City Travel MR05 FEN is a tri-axle Van Hool Astron T917 which was new to Fenn Holidays, March in 2005 and later spent time with Rayner, Esh Winning.
On the early evening of Sunday 25th April 2021, Cometan attended a council of six other philosophers, academics and public figures in the Space Philosophy and Space Renaissance movements. This virtual meeting was held to discuss the human condition as it relates to space exploration and the state of the movement to cosmocentralise the world.
Cometan’s presentation at the meeting centred on his endeavour to unity the Astronist community and all cosmocentric thinkers around the world; this was the first public message of vicinalism. Vicinalism, or coming into vicinality with the Astronist Institution, means to approximate to Astronism, either becoming part of the Institution itself or becoming an Astronist denomination.
The meeting is henceforth known as the First Vicinal Assembly, the first of its kind to discuss Astronism. This image has today been classified as one of the notable images of Cometan, a select group of pictures of Cometan that demonstrate an important moment or person in his life.

I think there must have been a concert, or some other event, taking place at Manchester City's Maine Road ground, not far from here, so I made a considerable diversion on my way home from work to see what was there. I was either late arriving, or there wasn't a lot there, as I didn't get many shots - or maybe they were all blocking each other.
Although still in Morris Travel of Pencoed livery, this Van Hool T818 Astron had very recently moved not very far to Ferris of Senghenydd, its third owner in two years. It had been new to Harris of Armadale in 1983, in Siesta Holidays livery, and gone to Morris a year later.
It kept on moving about for several more years, but reached Trathens at Plymouth in 1994, where it was converted for band bus use, and ran with them for 6 years.
