Hi'

I received an alert from Calsky the ISS would be transiting the Sun from my home location in the UK on September 5th @ 11. cloudy skies cleared just moments before the transit.

Using the ASI120mm, Lunt LST35 Ha deluxe OTA on an EQ6 Pro. mount.

Very very nice pic.

I can't get focus without a Barlow. How do you do it?

Using the helical focuser which comes with the LS35 only allows the user to focus with eyepieces, to achieve focus with a video camera such as a DMK, ASI120mm or similar - you need a lower profile one, I use one of these:
