Ash in the obsy???

[Daniel-K]

well last night was unexpected clear but murky skys so i set up imaging and let it run then when i was checking everything over there was ash all over the obsy floor,computer, walls, lucky non had got to the scope lens thanks to the dew shield. couldn't smell smoke or any signs of fire, and my garden has a bit of ash over it too, very strange considering there was no wind either last night

Sounds like a close escape, for your optics at least.
