Yet another Mercury transit (11/11/2019)

[NenoVento]

Hi all,

Here you have my try on the subject (colorized from a B&W picture):

The gear:

    Celestron CPC 800 GPS XLT
    Thousand Oaks Optical filter
    Risingcam GPCMOSS02000KMA

The software:

    ToupSky (I took 500 frames with 6 gain and 0.106 ms)
    Autostakkert
    RegiStax
    The Gimp

The seeing was terrible, if only because of the winds, which was blowing sand all over my gear...

Thanks for watching,

 

NV
