Seeing is not really good enough for the 3X barlow but I couldn't resist trying:

Thanks for making me get the scope out and have a quick go.... might be cold and windy, but the sun is OUT and I am now on holiday! I will post once my old PC has had a time to think about it!!

Cheers

That's great Peter! Look forward to seeing the results. I've had a rollercoaster ride of frustration mixed with happiness.  I'm giving the cloud that has hovered directly in front of the sun (rest of the sky is blue) another 5 mins to clear then will give up for the day

Just about to pop a new post on the forum.... 700frame stacks and Autostakert seem to have saved the day... that is one active sunspot, hope we get more in 2015.

Thanks

Nice shot Iain, pity about the seeing.  Try cloud bursting, it worked in the film 'The men who stare at goats'.

I think Steve might use a similar technique at times?

Hi Robin, cloud cleared.... exactly 5 mins after I packed up

Very nice, Iain. I was super confused by the weather yesterday. Plenty of clear in the end our way!
