Details:
A little over a month ago, my son Massimo asked me what was the next astronomical event. I told him about the Transit of Mercury and he expressed the desire to see it.
On leaving school (we missed the entrance) we went to a country near the city with portable equipment.
MTO 1000 on tripod and camera, eyepieces and solar filter. Unfortunately I forgot the tripod dovetail and we had to fight, as well as with the clouds even with the weight of the MTO held by hand.
Photo made in collaboration: I kept the MTO and he shot !!
We caught Mercury ... with all its immense joy!
