APRIL 6TH - MOON 98.8% 13.56 DAYS - BAILLY & RICCIOLI WELL PLACED

[paulastro]

Seeing was rather poor last night, but I still managed some nice views and a few pictures.  Bailly and Riccioli were well placed.

Single frame taken at 11.55 pm, SW 120ED, Olympus E-M5 MKII, 1/250 sec at 200 asa. The crops of Bailly and Riccioli are taken  from the same frame.

I agree, the seeing was pretty poor last night despite the clear sky here on the UK South Coast.

I gave up after various test shots, but you've done well..!!

Cheers,

Good shots Paul, they were indeed well placed. I enjoyed some excellent views with really good seeing, best I’ve had for some time. Just goes to show how much it varies from time to time and also location.

Thanks Stu.  I'm glad you had some good seeing, it's just a shame we don't get it too often.
