I managed to get out and check out some of the occultation of Regulus last night.
I missed it disappearing behind the dark limb unfortunately, but was ready for its re-emergence just over a hour later.
I was looking right at the moon through my 25mm ep, allowing me to keep an eye on the entire disk. The sudden "switching on" of the tiny intense blue light of Regulus was really striking! I took a few photos and videos after watching it for a short while, so the photos show the star not right on the edge any more.
I also took some other photos as well...
