Thanks, these are awesome, I'm unable align the stars in M42 to get a sensible verification of your latitude probably cause your using a 150(skywatcher?) and I'm using a 200 and I can't really use the moon without a date/time/direction since its on a 5 degree tilt.
A photo of a half moon just before moon set would be perfect then I can measure the angle of the terminator to the horizon.
Your moonset angle should be at least 13 degrees different from mine for a globe & I can't think of an FE theory that would explain that.
I'll also take sunspots on a setting sun provided I can get the sun where I live- weather is a challenge.
