The Queens nose

Post by Cyclops »

Its the back of one our 5p coins(a nickel in US?)

Interestingly when i took this it was quite dark as itsa reflected light object and i was using the kitchen ceiling lights as illumination, which aint great! I put the camera phone over the eyepiece and it was very noisy, so i put it on night mode and voila!
It was sharper than this tho but the camera refocuses and it obviously is slightly out with the scopes focus point(need a decent camera for this. I have a couple of 35mm SLRs but lighting is even more fun with 35mm! Digis just make it so easy!)
