OK not a great photo by all means but WAIT before commenting. I took this shot wondering what the bright light was with flashing red occasionally with the naked eye. So I grabbed my little camcorder and hand held it to the window to see if I could discover what it was. This was last saturday night /Sunday morning.
this is the camcorder I used
As you can see not designed for astro work
the picture below may need enlarging (Cntrl and + together)
Then it became clear the red was Mars and the other white one Uranus i think
No way did I ever think of even getting such a shot from East Sussex with just using that.
Please remember what I used and through a window before making any comment. I even wondered if it was worth posting on here
