Yeap, I had to put the tripod on the car roof, and used a 5-6 seconds exposure mode

And it's not a dslr

If you see with your own eyes the 'wow' factor is there, if you see it on the photograph, I don't think the 'wow' is there

Nice shots!!!

It was cloudy here... But this event is not "rare". It actually happens every few years. I like to see the public's interest raised to astro stuff, but it's a shame that it is something as simple as "near miss" conjunctions or partial eclipses. Maybe I am just a nurd!
