  1. Seems to have been virtually permanent cloud this year. Manged to get a decent look at the naked eye AR currently crossing the Sun.

    Fairly reasonable conditions, considering the altitude of the Sun when imaged.

    Didn't bother with the C9.25, just the Evostar 120mm due to the altitude. Been so long since the last session, i felt like a beginner again ๐Ÿ™‚ย 

    60 second SER, stacking 20% in A/S3, sharpened in REG6. Mono and false colour for aesthetic reasons.

  2. Managed to get home in time from work, to set up and quickly capture this event in bright blue skies.

    Not great conditions, but pleased to be able to see and image the event. 1st session of the year at last, a quick process this morningย 

    Usual set up, C9.25, asi224mc, X1.2 Barlow

  3. There was an interesting review and thread on Cloudy Nights just before Christmasย ย Seestar S50 - first light and review - Smart Telescopes - Cloudy Nightsย What the Seestar can do does look pretty impressive to me, especially for the price.ย 

    My C9.25 though is the perfect "all rounder" for me, great planetary/Lunar imager and viewer. Pretty good white light scope with the right filter. Very pleasing all round visual scope as well.
