Ibbo!

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.

Nice crisp disc. Is this a mosaic? There seems to be a horizontal band across the image.

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.

Very nice.

Lovely set of images with quite a bit going on. Itching to get a chance to point my solar scope at the sun again (maybe Sunday, fingers crossed)

Thanks.

I bet you are.

Hope the seeing is good enough to give it a proper go.

Nice images! You caught several flares and the big filament in the east.

Thanks .

Forgot to mention the extra cloud filter.

This policy doesn't always work for me. I specialize in losing 10mm spanners. Buying ten at a time has not solved the problem...

For me it is Allen keys - does not matter what the size as its that one missing from the set.

Thanks Michael, back to the normal clouds today.

Great work.

Really great version of M13. Goes to show the integration time pays off even on globular clusters.

Can I just ask one question. Why the 299s exposures? Am I missing something obvious?

Slip of the mouse/keyboard operator.

It should have been 300secs.

I have now alterd the Astrobin data which I copied and pasted to

Looking good Steve, I've been snowed under with home stuff this week and missed all the action and today's not looking any better, thunderstorms forecast for later perhaps I'll get some lightning  shots.

Dave

Thanks Dave.

Shame you cannot get out there, its a warm one. 🌞🌞🌞

After the other night I have put the DLSR on the tripod with a wide lens either for the the lightning or NLC.
