Old Data - New Image


Kinch

Recommended Posts

Having been away from my setup in Spain for several months I was looking forward to getting going again.......BUT....don't believe what they say in the brochures.....it rains here too.

Today is the 3rd day of near non stop rain here in SE Spain......but I passed the time yesterday, then again today playing with old data from 2016. I am glad that 3 years down the road, I find it easier to process the data and  - I think - improve the end result.

Across the Mar Menor from him in Los Alcazares - people have been flooded out of their homes (2nd time this year) because of recent heavy rains....whatever the cause (not getting into that).... the climate here is definitely changing.  I struggle with high relative humidity living by the coast but I will still try astrophotography.......whenever the clouds clear....which is not so frequent as it said in the brochure.    😞
