I managed to see Mercury for the first time tonight and I had a go at imaging it despite the seeing being awful and very windy. I used my 8" Dob with asi120mc-s. It was like a disco ball so i decided to split the channels and the green one gave me the best results (still very noisy/diffuse to show the proper phase). The phase is apparent and not too dissimilar to what I saw; a Stellarium screenshot for comparison. I hope to have another go.
