Ibbo!

Thanks Michael Back to normal today -full cloud. Thanks Charl The prom is what got me to set up.

A desperate grab of solar data plagued with clouds and poor transparency, well that my excuse for the soft focus. Lunt 60 mm RFT D/S 178 cam

canon 7D on fixed tripod 8mm lens. Pity about the cloud and that the intervalometer battery died (despite putting a new one in the other day)

Hope you are on the mend soon.

And mine and it does indeed open fits files.🌞

Congratulations John a mighty achievement.

I had forgotten about these. C11 ZWO 178mm and an IR 742 filter.

Thak you, it was a long session for just 5 ser files but worth it in the end.

Very nice. Set up enter the clouds, go do something else -clear patch finish doing "something else" clouds.

William Optics FLT 132 QSI 690 Astrodon 31mm 3nm HA: 12x600" Despite the stateof the guide graph. M20 transits at a massive 13° above the horizon from here and skirts the obs roofline. This is so far as low as I can go from the obs. Do the clicky dance for full res.

Thanks and I think you are correct.

Nice set David. I waited while later as I thought seeing may improve later afternoon (as normal here) but no I'm afraid managed 1/2 doz ser files before I gave in.

typical as it happens worse patch of seeing all night like looking at a wobbling jelly

out imaging it - shadow about to leave the disc and moon comme onto disc. or if you prefer moon ingress and shadow egress.

Thanks Jeremy

Very nice and shows much promise for the future.

Sounds like a good night out complete with a bit of bonding. Glad they "enjoyed it" Is "slightly cool" a bit like "mostly harmless" 😀

Just popped out again and a bucket load of cloud has drifted in. noticably cooler so might sleep better when the bed calls.

Been out again tonight and set up similarly dressed as last night but have had to come in for a break as I'm having a bit of a sneezing session, just got saturn in the FOV of the cam and no NLC tonight. I will try again in a bit.

Thanks . I remembered to take flats today.

Thanks . Yes it is a 3 pane one and yes I forgot to do the flats, again.

Lovely night, has been a shorts and t shirt night here as well. Naked eye NLC watching as well as out capturing jupiter videos - not sure how well they will turn out as it has been a while. The DS rig was also running and I now seem to have fettled a few gremlins. Not too many bugs about, a hedgehog joined me for a while as it was munching on discarded mealworms the birds had scattered which pleased me but upset the dogs and probably the neighbours as well as HH needed a good barking at - opps. Nice dawn sky colours as I was packing away. All in all a pleasant night was had.
