Dear All, Seeing not great but did a bit of cloud dodging this morning. Best I could manage - but the processing does not look right. Tal/PST mod PGR G3 55 frames from 1500 concatenated SER. Hope everyone gets a view today - thunderstorms predicted here . Best wishes, David Right click and "view ima...

Grabbed a session this morning. Seeing very wobbly. Struggled with the proms and my plastic bag flat left some NR remnants on my AR attempts. Tal/PST stage 2 mod, PGR G3. AR images 50 frames from 1500 frame concatenated SER. proms 50 frames from 900 frame concatenated SER. Hope someone gets better s...

Thanks to my aged Boxer dog I had an early start ( 5:30 am ). Decided to have a quick session once the sun had got up above the hil behind the farm. Anyway, a quick process in Imppg and tidy up here is the first one off the press. 100 frames stacked from 1500 frame concatenated SER. Tal 100/PST stag...

Dear All,
Got a quick session this morning.
Tal/PST mod PGR G3, 90 frames stacked from 1500 frame conactenated SER.
Quick process, will give it another go I think.
Hope everyone gets some sun.
Best wishes,
David

Thank you all. I was surprised at the level of detail given the amount of turbulence, but thankful
for any clear spells ( and something to image :-) )
Stu, I used a plastic bag flat to rid me of some faint NRs, that seems to be the best panacea for me.
Best wishes,
David

Thank you Franco.
Here is a prom I rescued from the murk.
Best wishes,
David

Beautiful capture Maurits.

I had hoped that the seeing would be pristine this morning. Sadly still a bit wobbly like yesterday. Here is a quick processed image of the AR. I am hoping that I can rescue some proms later. 50 frames from a 1800 frame concatenated SER. Tal/PST mod with PGR G3 camera. Best wishes, David Best viewed...

Grabbed a few SERs just before lunch. Light cloud and wobbly seeing, but glad to have a look-see. Tal100/PST mod PGRg3 50 frames from 900 frame concatenated SER. Had to crank up the gamma to increase the contrast. Best wishes, David ( Right click and view image for full size ) 2019-03-20_T_11-28-28-...

Well , back after a lengthy lay-off but glad to be imaging again. I barely remembered what to do but managed one image from a late morning session. Quite a bit of high cloud drifting . I had to use a much more contrasty gamma than usual - I hope it was the conditions. I may have been too agressive w...

Valery, Thanks for posting raw image. I love processing other folks images trying to reproduce their results using my usual methods. In this case it was more interesting as I haven't processed any CaK images before. I had quite a lot of trouble deciding what was noise and what was artefact from my h...

You could use SER player to save the good bits to separate SER files using the "set marker" facility then concatenate the good bits to a single SER file using PIPP ? If there was a flag in SER player that cut the marked frames it would shorten the process ( perhaps there is a way to "invert" the mar...

Lovely presentation Pedro. Interesting comparison of scopes and combinations.
What is your preferred rig for full disk Ha imaging ?
Best wishes,
David

Beautiful set Stu.

Dear All, Wasted all morning due to my own stupidity. I could not get a focus on my Tal/PST mode rig. Started to panic thinking my etalon had de-contacted. Anyway a chance test with another scope made me twig that I had forgotten I had hid a telecentric inside a nosepiece hidden behind a 35nm filter...

Dear All, Got some sun today so had a couple of quick sessions. Started with the Tal/PST mod and concentrated on the active region. 100 frames stacked from 1200 frame SER captured with the PGR G3. Later had a gap so got the SM40/ 62mm Petzval combo out ( alt-az and drifted to get rid of NRs ). 100 f...

Dear All, not been imaging much so grabbed a quick session this morning before the haze clouded over. 75 frames from 1200 frame SER. SM40 front mounted on a 62mm Petzval frac, PGR G3, alt-az undriven to rid me of NRs. Best wishes, David Right click and "view image" for full size. SM40FD62mmPetzvalPG...

Got a very quick session this morning cloud dodging.
One image only.
Tal/PST mod +PGR G3.
100 images stacked from 1500 frame concatenated SER.

Brian,
Cracking FD and great detail in the AR images. Glad you are getting some decent sessions in your
work break.
Best wishes,
David

Lovely set Pedro.

David

Wonderful detail Stu. Are you near the sea? Seeing is rubbish lately here on the Pennine margins.
Could of course be due to the new obsy not being as porous to the wind as the old one .
Best wishes,
David

Nice! Something for everyone Derek,
Best wishes,
David

Got some larger gaps in the rolling clouds this morning. Seeing still poor. Not a great session, so only an AR to show for the effort. Hope seeing is better where you are.

Some very nice detail Brian. Great collection.
Best wishes,
David

They are excellent Mark.
