A couple of changes to the re-configuration. I have decided it is pointless to remove ALL the Sky90s from the array and I will simply replace Sky90(3) with the 3rd 200mm Canon lens. That way I retain 5 imaging rigs … Continue reading
The North Dome MiniWASP array is starting its transition to the Micro-Dragonfly array, named after the much larger Dragonfly array. Today I received the first of 3 key components – the 200mm Canon f#2.8 prime lens. I have on order … Continue reading
Dad captured this group of Fakirs/Holy men on his travels. Once again we have the original sepia print at the top, followed by the Grok cleaned-up and colourised print, followed by the amazing Grok animation.
