Peter Drew Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I managed a few minutes at 6pm. Quite good seeing and unusual to see two parallel filaments. They looked wider spaced than this excellent image but I was using a much higher magnification. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey-T Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Good catch, only clouds here. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Nice shot. That spot is getting close to the edge (if there is an edge to a sphere!!!) now. Like Dave, only clouds for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulastro Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Lovely image. I did a very quick sketch at 6.10 pm, and as Peter said, at that time in the PST there looked to be a wide space between the two filaments, at low power using 10mm on the zoom. Twelve hours before, 6.55 -7.15 am, I there was only one filament. The pics are not the same orientation as in the morning I did the drawing from memory, using a GONG image to help me place what I had seen in the correct place when I came indoors.

That's very kind of you, though I do my sketches fairly quickly just to get a record for my observing book. They are more utility rather than artistic 😄. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
