On the night of July 16-17, 2019, I was able to observe and photograph an interesting lunar eclipse. As in the past year, for this we had to get to the outskirts of the city, as trees and houses interfere with the observations from the yard. The weather was unstable, about 50% of the clouds, so I had to catch the moon between the clouds. Also lightings flickered in the distance. The participants in the photo school “Foton” also participated in the observations. I took two telescopes with me – Celestron NexStar 8 SE and Celestron Omni XLT 127 on the mount Levenhuk ATZ, also 8×26 binoculars. There were other astronomy fans — Nikolai from Syktyvkar with the Sky-Watcher BK 102 Mak telescope and Alexander with a home-made 200-mm dobsian. Managed to see Jupiter, Saturn, and, well, actually, a lunar eclipse from start. In the full phase, the moon was not completely closed by the earth’s shadow; The atmosphere was very stable.
Equipment:
-telescope Celestron Omni XLT 127
-mount Celestron NexStar SE
-camera Canon 5D mk II.

On the morning of January 21, 2019, an interesting event occurred – a lunar eclipse. I had to get up early to get together and get to the open area. I decided to go to the sea, the sky is visible to the horizon. The weather let us down a little, fast clouds were moving in the side of the moon. Nevertheless, we managed to capture some of the phases (from 06:37 to 07:09 local time).
Equipment: Celestron Omni XLT 127, Sky-Watcher AZ3 mount, Canon 5D mk II camera. Location: Anapa, Vysokij bereg.

В ночь с 27 на 28 июля 2018 года произошли сразу два интересных события – лунное затмение и противостояние Марса. Съемке и наблюдению со двора мешали дома и деревья, поэтому было решено организовать наблюдения на автополигоне недалеко от Ореховой рощи. Также весь день было облачно, сама поездка была под большим вопросом, но буквально за час до предполагаемого времени выезда резко распогодилось. Несколько дней я размышлял насчет набора оборудования, которое нужно взять, так как кроме меня были еще желающие посмотреть в телескоп. В итоге было решено взять следущий комплект:
-телескоп Celestron C8 на монтировке Levenhuk AZT, окуляр Explore Scientific 30 мм 82 гр, окуляр Celestron Zoom 8-24 мм – визуальные наблюдения Луны и планет
-телескоп Celestron Omni XLT 127 на монтировке NexStar SE + Canon 5D Mark II – астрофотосъемка Луны с периодичностью 1 снимок в минуту
-бинокль Nikon Sporter EX 8х42 – визуальные наблюдения.
Взял еще ноутбук и астрокамеру для съемки Марса, но из-за ухудшения погоды не успел поснимать.
