I was up at 5am but only saw fog zzzzz but there is another chance tomorrow ( hopefully) I was out at that time, too and heard the church clock strike 5. The sky was very hazy, but Jupiter was shining nicely next to the Moon and Orion was lovely in the south. I spent about 15 minutes just looking, but didn't feel it was worthwhile dragging a scope out. By 9 it was completely different and I'm glad I did. I hope tomorrow morning works out for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy D Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 I've pushed the contrast a bit more in GIMP by adjusting the curve, here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
