And then it clouded over for an hour - then all was good again!

Yes it is where I am aswell. I had good views of the Orion Nebula and Pleiades .

Thanks Chris I managed about 90GB, or 15 runs on Jupiter at just under 4x (3800mm on my 200P). Seeing was pretty reasonable and I also managed a little lunar IR at the f/l as a quick experiment.

Great evening, but now the kids are up it's impossible to find the time to process anything!!

Lol, I constantly being nagged by missus because I am processing instead of playing with the kids.

BTW. Nice capturing.

I've just had it in the neck myself - though fair play ;)

Try the following:

"Come out here and have a look at the moon lady".

"Oh yes that is lovely man, I am really glad you bought that scope its was an excellent investment given the beautiful views we can now share"

Haha ;)

Gee, thanks for them clouds ;)

Hey its clear down here and I'm hoping to get out a little later - not expecting clouds in these parts til I take delivery (and the following 12 weeks)!

Pics or it didn't happen.

There's some pics up in the Lounge, or my gallery. A 1982 10" F6+ with H Widley Optics. Needs some attention, but the optics should be good after a recoat - can't complain for £ 34 ;)

Oh and the clouds, which are winning so far :(

Here we go 40 x 15sec Lum

Gave up due to clouds but got some reasonable Lum data

You going to post it for us to see ? :) :)

On its way - just first processed my veil from last night!

Really nice skyt, but quite gusty wind - focusing on NGC6543

Its very good here, I should have gone to the dark site.

Yep great skies so far, but cloud on the way down from the north, so you may catch this first. Nice the moon hasn't risen yet!

Hope you get out, last night here started with lots of dew and clouds so I gave in, popped out at 1am and conditions were perfect.

Thanks Jarrod, should stay clear til 2am, with some cloud between 3 and 4. Definitely worth a go as is any gap we get over here at the moment ;)

Hmmm... I think the Blue might be hit more by moonlight than you think. You've probably got about another 30min before gradients kick in. Im on SII now, before going back to M31 for a Ha top-up.

I just managed the blue, but green looks very thin now under the moon - I'll capture 20 mins worth then move on and have a crack at Neptune and Uranus - that way I'll be ready for Jupiter if the clouds keep away!

managed about 1.5 hrs on m31 so far moons just coming over the tip of the house, may image some star fields and try and learn to process star colour nice to be out though!!!
