Sunday bedroom Sun 19th Nov 2017
More fun from the bedroom at lunchtime today. I got a break for only 15 minutes before the gap closed. No time this week for the single stack comparison.

Re: Sunday bedroom Sun 19th Nov 2017
Looks great Alexandra! I was too distracted with the L50 to get the CaK out before my 'window' closed, I need to rig something up so they're both mounted at the same time. We had a very similar sunset too.

Re: Sunday bedroom Sun 19th Nov 2017
Thanks guys sorry you had no sunset Stu
Just thought I would include an image of the autumn colours shining in the Sun in the woods yesterday (I bet Derek would like it), it was magical. It was taken on the hubbies iPhone so it is a bit blurred, sorry. Autumn days are short and soon gone.

Re: Sunday bedroom Sun 19th Nov 2017
Alexandra: it is pretty amazing what you can squeeze out of that DS PST ! Many people, including me, cannot get a better image with a much larger aperture. Love that big prominence shot and the Cal K is very sharp. We also have beautiful colors and leaves here in New England but we are at the end of the season now.

Re: Sunday bedroom Sun 19th Nov 2017
Thanks guys
Raf - no, the black Sun is single stack hydrogen alpha. I colour in blue so you can see the faint proms, if you colour in red then the eye cannot see them.

Alexandra:
Clean and crisp images from your DS PST, it performs really well, not to say the CaK images they are super.
Nice wood shot too.
Best regards,
Eric.
