Phantom Cat - h-alpha, 2nd July

[Luke]

Hi all,

I was caught out this morning. Hadn't bothered to set up the mount due to a lot of cloud around, and then all of a sudden a reasonable gap appeared. I broke my record for mount setup time Quark was ready before I was, so warm up time doesn't really affect my tracked imaging. Seeing was ropey again but happy to see some rays. The AR looked nice and an interesting area developing over the other side, but I really liked this filament.

Thanks for looking,

Luke

Looks very nice, Luke.  Perhaps your phantom four-legged friend was what caused this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-33360817
