5.03.2020 Not another AR12759?

[Rusted]

Blowing a southerly gale here despite a 51F heatwave and bright sunshine!
I have only one shutter open and the laptop strapped down in case it blows away!
Slightly better seeing than last time.

Yet another image: New colour = Sepia + Saturation.

More images from this morning. Giving up for lunch.

Far too windy now. The telescope is blowing about too much!

We have wind 20-30 knots, and it's cloudy! - Again!

 

Good to see you still imaging....

Thanks Geoff.
Sorry to hear about your cloud. Wall to wall sunshine over here. 
I had to pack up for lunch when it became far too windy to continue.
Going back out to try again as the wind veers to the SE.
So I may get a little more shelter now I'm past the meridian.
It has reached 55F, warmest this year, but I'm wearing all my winter gear including gloves!  🥶

We have a similar temperature. Good luck if you get another chance today.

Perhaps if I lock my 'scopes away and lose the keys it might turn sunny! Once upon a few days ago clear outside promised

today would be in the green!

Great going... I use your images as my ‘U.K. based, weather/seeing permitting/sensible £ of kit’, reference point (always good for a beginner to have something to aim for)! So I’ll be coming back to these later after i’ve done my chores and been ‘excused’ to go off and ‘play’!

 

If they come out somewhere comparable, I’ll be more than happy.

Know what you mean about the wind, had to put a brick on the hood over the laptop... all very well Apple making them svelte, but I wouldn’t have been happy watching it fly over the fence! Thin but full cloud cover here. Accompanying symphony from the three wheelie bins and the fence panels rattling away!
