Great night of doubles 31/5/14

Rather than redo what's in my notes I just photographed my notes and uploaded them - getting lazy!

Very interesting notes Shane 

Haven't had a clear night here for some time now

Lovely notes, thanks for sharing them. STF 2816/2819 is a favourite of mine; 2816 would be a great triple by itself, but it makes a wonderful asterism with 2819. The way the stars are laid out, it looks almost as if 2819 is rushing towards the open arms of 2816! Call me fanciful.

STF 2241 is psi1 Dra rather than psi Cep, isn't it?

Cheers guys. Oops yes I was clearly talking out of my Dobson's! Psi Dra it is indeed.

If you can't be fanciful about such amazing objects then it's time to give in :0)

Impressive note taking! The Sky God has not been kind here recently unfortunately, so the last few nights have been astronomy-free!

Cheers Chris.just realised that I didn't mention using my aperture mask (about 120mm f13) for double stars
