Imaging fail

[Thalestris24]

I was doing my best to image around 6Gem when, after a while, I noticed my guiding going a bit crazy. I couldn't see an obvious reason but then realised the radiator in my living room had come on and was chucking warm, very turbulent air out of the window! D'uh! I switched the radiator off and opened another window and it's calmed down now. This is what happens when weeks of clouds mean you're out of practice...

I think we all get a bit "ring rusty" after a long break. I hadn't done any planetary imaging for several months and it did feel a bit odd for a while!
